[shaunthegeek]

import marked from 'marked';

return (<div>{ marked('I am using __markdown__.') }</div>);

error:

TypeError: src.replace is not a function

As i see it works when you add
npm install @types/marked
then

import 'marked';

marked('**bold**);

Isn't this valid just for typescript?

[sciborrudnicki]

@ondrejsevcik it is, because of @types/marked.

@chjj Would you accept PR solving this issue? I think it's a good time to start support import syntax.

fwiw, I was tripping over this until doing

import * as marked from 'marked';
console.log(marked('## foo'));

[ondrejsevcik]

@anowell unfortunately that doesn't work for me (I'm using it in Ember app).

@ondrejsevcik: I can say, we would definitely consider it. Having said that, focus right now is still security and fixing known failings we have with markdown specs; so, we may not be triaging tickets as much as you might think necessary.

If the solution can make import work without destroying require...don't see why we wouldn't at least have a healthy discussion around it.
