## Status
### Correctness
As of writing, Jotdown implements all the current features of the Djot syntax,
including:

Note that it requires node in order to run the reference implementation.
### Performance
There are benchmarks available to measure the performance. The input files are
borrowed from the [reference implementation][djot-js]. To fetch the input files
symlink them to the bench directory, run:
```
make bench
```
There are two separate benchmarks suites that can be run; criterion and iai.
Criterion measures statistical real-time performance while iai measures exact
number of executed instructions and memory accesses. To run the criterion
benchmarks, use
```
cargo bench -p bench-crit [filter]
```
Alternatively, if `cargo-criterion` is installed:
```
cargo criterion -p bench-crit -- [filter]
```
To run the iai benchmarks, use
```
cargo bench -p bench-iai
```
