Readme Renderer is a library that will safely render arbitrary
``README`` files into HTML. It is designed to be used in Warehouse_ to
render the ``long_description`` for packages. It can handle Markdown,
reStructuredText (``.rst``), and plain text.

Check Description Locally
-------------------------

To locally check whether your long descriptions will render on PyPI, first
build your distributions, and then use the |twine check|_ command.

Everyone interacting in the readme_renderer project's codebases, issue trackers,
chat rooms, and mailing lists is expected to follow the `PSF Code of Conduct`_.
