Description

As mentioned recently on the mailing list and on our wiki, other projects that use markdown are inheriting vulnerabilities via the "marked" library. I have already replaced "marked" with "markdown-it" in gpii-handlebars.

Although there are fewer security concerns with the fluid-docs repo, ideally we would like:

  1. To depend on and potentially contribute to only one markdown rendering library
  2. To be able to write using the same markdown across all our projects.

There is a docpad plugin that uses "markdown-it". This ticket covers updating the fluid-docs repo to use that plugin.
