The remark-gfm npm package exhibits irregular release patterns. Initial releases occurred in late 2020 and throughout 2021. A single release followed in September 2023, another in February 2025. There have been no releases in the months since February 2025 and until today, September 11, 2025.
remark-gfm is a remark plugin that adds support for GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM) to the remark ecosystem. It enables parsing and rendering of GFM-specific syntax such as tables, tasklists, and strikethrough text, which are not part of standard Markdown. This allows developers to process and transform Markdown content that includes these common GitHub extensions, making it ideal for projects that need to accurately handle GFM-style documents.
Remark-gfm downloads show a strong upward trend from March 2024 to August 2025, peaking at nearly 28 million. September 2025 downloads are significantly lower, around 10.6 million, likely due to the month being incomplete as of September 11th, 2025.
