Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Markdown used in descriptions is not always desired in the output from templates as the resource that the template is creating may not support markdown.

Describe the solution you'd like

A lambda that converts markdown to HTML would be very beneficial in cases like this.
ideal invocation would be like:

{{#lambda.mdToHtml}}{{{appDescription}}}{{/lambda.mdToHtml}}

Describe alternatives you've considered

I can not think of an offhand alternative than doing this with a lambda, but if there are any ways, I would love to hear them.
