Description

Currently, the site for Deno Third Party Modules (a.k.a. deno.land/x) shows the output of markdown files (for instance `README.md`) as HTML.

As a lot of the modules are hosted on GitHub, such markdown files often use GitHub Flavored Markdown (GHFM).

GHFM adds a few extensions to plain markdown, such as [strikethrough](https://github.github.com/gfm/#strikethrough-extension-) and [tables](https://github.github.com/gfm/#tables-extension-).

however, deno.land/x does not seem to support these, causing rendering to break for such files.

For example https://deno.land/x/Thread:

| GitHub | x |
| --- | --- |

Could a package / parser be used that actually supports GHFM?
