Contra
The Contra utility converts so called the "C Style Markup Language" to HTML/XML and back. The primary aim is to maximize both editability and readability by dynamizing the markup representation.
The Contra utility itself is meant to serve as a backbone for other tools, such as text editor or IDE extensions.
See documentation/*
for the exact details or follow this README for a quick-start.

Installantion
For any of the below plugins to work, the Contra executable will have to be installed on your system.
Build from source
Contra is written in C, it must be compiled.
Make sure you have the following dependencies:
- a C compiler (e.g. gcc)
- Make (e.g. GNU Make)
- Flex
After navigating to the root directory, run:
$ make
This will result in a new executable file called contra
,
place it in your $PATH
.
The easiest way to do so is by running:
$ make install
Vim
Place the file "plugin/contra.vim" inside "~/.vim/plugin/". You might have to create the directory yourself. Or, assuming your setup actually matches with the above, you could run:
$ make vim_install
Visual Studio Code
The VS Code extension is written in TypeScript, so it has to be compiled too. This will require a million node modules. You are advised to run:
$ make code_install
