Changes Implemented

  1. Removed Legacy Configuration
    • Deleted: src/utils/markdown/marked-config.ts
    • Reason: Transitioning from Marked to Remark for enhanced markdown processing
  2. Added Remark Backlinks Support Successfully implemented backlink processing for the following formats:
    • Basic wiki-style: [[content/tooling/filename]]
    • Custom display text: [[path/to/file|Display Text]]
    • Nested paths: [[content/lost-in-public/prompts/file]]
    • Case-insensitive matching: [[Content/Specs/file]]

Testing Results

Verified successful transformation of various link formats:
markdown 
[[content/tooling/Some File Name]] -> Correct path resolution
[[content/tooling/Some Other File|Custom Display Text]] -> Display text preserved
[[content/lost-in-public/prompts/user-interface/Some Deep File]] -> Nested paths working
[[content/Specs/API Documentation/Auth Flow]] -> Case handling verified
