Partial A basic Markdown or MDX parser is vibe-codeable, but matching remark's mdast output exactly and reaching a 17-28x speedup requires deep parser expertise and rigorous conformance testing.
What it would actually take: The stack is TypeScript with a hand-written or generated tokenizer and parser, validated against the CommonMark and remark test suites. Exact output parity means building a differential test harness against remark, which is laborious. The performance claims need profiling, low-level optimization and careful benchmarking by someone with parser-design experience.
