The Preprocessor

Sveltemd works by leveraging the parse function exported by svelte/compiler. It follows these steps:

1. run a "preprocess" phase that escapes any characters that break svelte syntax. This mainly involves escaping < and { characters, which svelte identifies as html and logic blocks.
2. call the parse function from svelte - this generates a Svelte Abstract Syntax Tree (Svast), basically a json representation of your svelte code.
3. Go to every text node in the svelte AST, and parse it as markdown.
4. Congrats, your svelte has markdown now! 😊
