typedoc-plugin-markdown
A plugin for TypeDoc that enables TypeScript API documentation to be generated in Markdown.
What it does?
The plugin will replace the default HTML theme with a built-in Markdown theme, and expose some additional arguments.
By default, the Markdown theme will attempt to render standard CommonMark, suitable for the majority of Markdown engines. It follows the same structure and file patterns as the default HTML theme.
