+1 Q:

Is there a Third Party library available for .NET projects that can convert a markdown document into html server-side? I.e. I've stored Markdown text in a database that needs to be converted to html when it is displayed.

I know about WMD, but it only converts client-side.

+1 A:

Markdown.NET

I believe that is what this site used at some point.

Edit

Markdown Sharp is what the site uses now.

I've looked at this library, and it's absolutely appalling. I recommend that you write something yourself.

SO doesn't use Markdown.NET (at least not any more -- I've no idea if it used to). SO uses Markdown Sharp.

+1 A:

Check out Markdown Sharp. It's the open source library that resulted from the development of Stack Overflow and is much more robust/actively developed than markdown.net.
