Support output as Markdown instead of html, for example, for github readme.md

DocFX does a great job in building static websites. But, I want to know if there is a way to export the files in Markdown. It would then be easy to put up on GitHub wikis or GitBook.

And by that I mean that I don’t require features like search, Affix, Breadcrumb, navbar, footer, etc.

Here’s what I tried:

• Renamed *.html.primary.* files to *.md.primary.*
• Modified partials and templates from html to markdown.
• Removed unnecessary features.

That was a good progress but with two major problems:

1. Markdown in conceptual documentation was getting converted to html. I really need to prevent this. Trying to add the *.md files to resources failed resulting in unresolved links.
2. Xml Documentation was being converted to html.

So, finally it seems that I want some way to convert that output html to markdown.

Any help is appreciated and BTW thank you for this awesome software.

@chenkennt I want DocFX to extract xml documentation from source code and augment my markdown files into it.

This would be really useful as a means of posting generated documentation in Azure DevOps (as a “Code Wiki”). For that reason I would support the standards recommended by them here which includes the standard DaringFireball standard and the GitHub Extensions.
