slackstyler is a Python package that converts Markdown text into Slack message formatting. The motivation for creating this package is to allow Python developers to prepare and send richly-formatted messages to Slack in a way that's familiar and easy to use.

slackstyler was inspired by JavaScript's slackify-markdown library and also based on mistune, a markdown parser in pure Python.
