mdextractor is a Python package designed for extracting code blocks from Markdown text. It efficiently identifies blocks enclosed in triple backticks (```), optionally preceded by language identifiers, and extracts their contents.

To install mdextractor, use pip:

pip install mdextractor

Using mdextractor is straightforward. Here's an example:

from mdextractor import extract_md_blocks
text = """
\`\`\`python
print("Hello, Markdown!")
\`\`\`
"""
blocks = extract_md_blocks(text)
print(blocks)
# Output: ['print("Hello, Markdown!")']

This package is useful in various applications where extracting code or preformatted text from Markdown is necessary.

• Efficient extraction of Markdown code blocks.
• Supports language specifiers following the opening backticks.
