# smu's fuud and suud

[smu](https://github.com/Gottox/smu/blob/master/documentation) is both a lightweight markup language and a reference implementation of a converter from `smu` documents to HTML. In normal people language, this shit basically takes a Markdown document and turns it into HTML.

## ok but why not just use Pandoc

Take Pandoc and its gazillion Haskell dependencies:

`pacgraph -c | grep pandoc`

> 437MB pandoc

and compare it to the compiled executable for `smu`, written in pure C:

`du -sh smu/smu`

> 44K smu/smu

MUH BLOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT

If all you're using Pandoc for is converting simple Markdown to HTML, there's no reason to have more than 400 MB in Haskell dependencies when `smu` only takes a few seconds to compile. Therefore, `smu` is clearly the suckless choice
