I built Unifast, a markdown/MDX compiler written in Rust.
It focuses on a simpler compiler pipeline and, in my benchmarks, compiles around 25x faster than the usual remark/rehype-based setup.
This started as a personal project because I felt the existing markdown toolchain was powerful, but sometimes more layered and complex than I wanted for straightforward compilation.
It’s still very early, so I’d really appreciate bug reports, feedback, and feature requests.
