Use RDiscount to mark up your content in Rails.

Put this in your Gemfile:

Then run bundle install</code>. Wait till everything finishes, restart your server.

Important:

You have to restart your server in order for the gem to work.

Add this to your app/helpers/application_helpers.rb</code>

module ApplicationHelper
  def markdown(text)
    RDiscount.new(text).to_html.html_safe
  end
end

Wrap the Markdown-formatted content with this:

<%= raw markdown(@blog.article) %>
