target="_blank" links in markdown

Finally had a chance to take a look at this… This might get you a bit closer. Just make sure you install [at least] markdown-it-attrs, <kbd>npm i markdown-it-attrs -D</kbd>

// .eleventy.js
const markdownIt = require("markdown-it");
const markdownItAttrs = require("markdown-it-attrs");

module.exports = (eleventyConfig) => {
  const mdOptions = {
    html: true,
    breaks: true,
    linkify: true,
  };
  const markdownLib = markdownIt(mdOptions)
    .use(markdownItAttrs)
    .disable("code");

  eleventyConfig.setLibrary("md", markdownLib);

  return {
    dir: {
      input: "src",
      output: "www",
    }
  };
};
