markdownItLoader: ((parser: any) => void)

Will be called when TypeDoc is setting up the markdown parser to use to render markdown. Can be used to add markdown-it plugins to the parser with code like this:

// typedoc.config.mjs
import iterator from "markdown-it-for-inline";
export default {
/** @param {MarkdownIt} parser */
markdownItLoader(parser) {
parser.use(iterator, "foo_replace", "text", function(tokens, idx) {
tokens[idx].content = tokens[idx].content.replace(/foo/g, 'bar');
});
}
}

Note: Unfortunately, markdown-it doesn't ship its own types, so parser isn't strictly typed here.
