I've been designing a new light markup syntax, based on the ideas in my essay "Beyond Markdown" (https://johnmacfarlane.net/beyond-markdown.html).  I thought readers of this list might be interested.  The language and its rationale are described here:  https://github.com/jgm/djot

The repository also contains a very fast parser written in pure Lua.  A pandoc custom reader and custom writer are also provided, so you can convert your favorite formats to and from djot.

The syntax is briefly described here: https://djot.net/playground/syntax.html

You can play with the implementation here: https://djot.net/playground/
