remark plugin to link references to commits, issues, and users, in the same way that GitHub does in comments, issues, PRs, and releases (see Writing on GitHub).
ContentsThis package is a unified (remark) plugin to link references to commits, issues, and users: @wooorm
-> [**@wooorm**](https://github.com/wooorm)
.
This project is useful if you want to emulate how markdown would work in GitHub comments, issues, PRs, or releases, but itâs actually displayed somewhere else (on a website, or in other places on GitHub which donât link references, such as markdown in a repo or Gist). This plugin does not support other platforms such as GitLab or Bitbucket and their custom features.
A different plugin, remark-gfm
, adds support for GFM (GitHub Flavored Markdown). GFM is a set of extensions (autolink literals, footnotes, strikethrough, tables, and tasklists) to markdown that are supported everywhere on GitHub.
Another plugin, remark-breaks
, turns soft line endings (enters) into hard breaks (<br>
s). GitHub does this in a few places (comments, issues, PRs, and releases), but itâs not semantic according to HTML and not compliant to markdown.
Yet another plugin, remark-frontmatter
, adds support for YAML frontmatter. GitHub supports frontmatter for files in Gists and repos.
This package is ESM only. In Node.js (version 16+), install with npm:
npm install remark-github
In Deno with esm.sh
:
import remarkGithub, {defaultBuildUrl} from 'https://esm.sh/remark-github@12'
In browsers with esm.sh
:
<script type="module"> import remarkGithub, {defaultBuildUrl} from 'https://esm.sh/remark-github@12?bundle' </script>Use
Say we have the following file example.md
:

Projects maintained by the unified collective are compatible with maintained versions of Node.js.
When we cut a new major release, we drop support for unmaintained versions of Node. This means we try to keep the current release line, remark-github@^12
, compatible with Node.js 16.
This plugin works with unified
version 6+ and remark
version 7+.
Use of remark-github
does not involve rehype (hast). It does inject links based on user content, but those links only go to GitHub. There are no openings for cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.
remark-gfm
â support GFM (autolink literals, footnotes, strikethrough, tables, tasklists)remark-breaks
â support breaks without needing spaces or escapes (enters to <br>
)remark-frontmatter
â support frontmatter (YAML, TOML, and more)See contributing.md
in remarkjs/.github
for ways to get started. See support.md
for ways to get help.
