Blackfriday is compatible with Go 1. If you are using an older
release of Go, consider using v1.1 of blackfriday, which was based
on the last stable release of Go prior to Go 1. You can find it as a
tagged commit on github.
goinstall github.com/russross/blackfriday
With Go 1 and git installed:
will download, compile, and install the package into
`$GOROOT/src/pkg/github.com/russross/blackfriday`.
go get github.com/russross/blackfriday
will download, compile, and install the package into your `$GOROOT`
directory hierarchy. Alternatively, you can import it into a

a statically-linked binary that can be copied to wherever you need
it without worrying about dependencies and library versions.
This is a simple command-line tool that allows you to process a
markdown file using a standalone program. You can also browse the
source directly on github if you are just looking for some example
code.
Note that if you have not already done so, installing
`blackfriday-tool` will be sufficient to download and install
blackfriday in addition to the tool itself. The tool binary will be
installed in `$GOROOT/bin`. This is a statically-linked binary that
can be copied to wherever you need it without worrying about
dependencies and library versions.
