Markdown Furigana to HTML

Welcome to Elnu's Markdown Furigana to HTML converter utility. This converter uses the following syntax, which is a custom and unofficial extension to Markdown:

[振]{ふ}り[仮]{が}[名]{な} ⟶ 振(ふ)り仮(が)名(な)

How does it work?

This syntax gets rendered to HTML as:

<span lang="ja"> <ruby>振<rp>(</rp><rt>ふ</rt><rp>)</rp></ruby>り <ruby>仮<rp>(</rp><rt>が</rt><rp>)</rp></ruby> <ruby>名<rp>(</rp><rt>な</rt><rp>)</rp></ruby> </span>

<rp>(</rp> and <rp>)</rp> ruby fallback parentheses tags are used to wrap furigana text with parentheses on legacy browsers that don't support <ruby>.
Most browsers default to displaying Chinese character variants rather than Japanese. By wrapping the ruby text in <span lang="ja">, we can ensure that the Japanese variants will always be used, if available.

For more information on this syntax, see my blog post here on creating a parser regular expression and integrating it into the Hugo static site generator.

<span lang="ja"></span>
