micromark-extension-gfm-autolink-literal enhances micromark, the CommonMark compliant markdown parser, by adding support for GFM (GitHub Flavored Markdown) autolink literals. This allows URLs, emails, and www-prefixed domains without explicit <> delimiters to be automatically recognized and linked within your markdown content. It provides an easy way to extend micromark's capabilities, ensuring compatibility with the popular GitHub markdown dialect and enabling users to create richer, more interactive experiences from markdown files.
