+```
+
+## Adding custom features
+
+`tempest/markdown` is meant to be extended. Adding custom parser rules is done in two steps: first you provide a `LexerRule`, this is a class that determines when your custom parsing logic should be triggered. Next you'll use a `Token` to render your selected Markdown code in any way you'd like.
+
+Let's work with an example. Say you want to add support for including custom HTML snippets. It could look something like this: 
+
+```
+Hello world
+
+{{ snippets/call-to-action.html }}
+```
+
+The first step to adding this new feature is detecting when we run into our custom `{{ }}` syntax. This is done with a `LexerRule`. Let's call our implementation `SnippetRule`:
+
+```php
+use Tempest\Markdown\Lexer;
+use Tempest\Markdown\Rule;
+use Tempest\Markdown\Token;
+
+final readonly class SnippetRule implements Rule
+{
+    public function shouldLex(Lexer $lexer): bool
+    {
+        // Our rule takes effect as soon as we run into `{{`
+
+        return $lexer->comesNext('{{', length: 2);
+    }
+
+    public function lex(Lexer $lexer): ?Token
+    {
+        // We'll consume all { characters
+        $lexer->consumeWhile('{');
+
+        // Then we'll consume and store the snippet path itself until we encounter the closing } characters
+        $snippet = $lexer->consumeUntil('}');
+
+        // Then we'll consume the closing } characters
+        $lexer->consumeWhile('}');
+
+        // Finally, we return a token with the snippet
+        return new SnippetToken(trim($snippet));
+    }
+}
+```
+
+:::info
+For performance reasons, it's best to explcitly add the `{:hl-property:length:}` parameter to the `{:hl-property:comesNext:}` call. It's not required, but it will make parsing faster. If possible, also try not to rely on regex within your lexer rules, as it may become a performance bottleneck.
+:::
+
+So that's our rule implementation: we consumed our custom `{{ path }}` syntax, and created a token with that path. Let's take a look at the token implementation next.
+
+The token's responsibility is to parse the content into HTML. 
+
+```php
+use Tempest\Markdown\Parser;
+use Tempest\Markdown\Token;
+use Tempest\View\Exceptions\ViewNotFound;
+use Tempest\View\ViewRenderer;
+use function Tempest\Container\get;
+
+final readonly class SnippetToken implements Token
+{
+    public function __construct(
+        public string $path,
+    ) {}
+
+    public function parse(Parser $parser): string
+    {
+        // Of course, you should add validation here depending on your use case
+
+        return file_get_contents($this->path);
+    }
+}
+```
+
+Finally, you should add your custom rule to the Markdown parser:
+
+```php
+use Tempest\Markdown\Markdown;
+
+$markdown = new Markdown();
+
+$markdown->prependRules(
+    new SnippetRule(),
+);
+```
+
+If needed, you can fully customize the Markdown parser by overwriting all rules:
+
+```php
+$markdown = new Markdown()->withRules(
+    new NewLineRule(),
+    new FrontMatterRule(),
+    new HeadingRule(),
+    new QuoteRule(),
+    new PreRule(),
+    new DivRule(),
+    new ThinRulerRule(),
+    new ThickRulerRule(),
+    new ListRule(),
+    new OrderedListRule(),
+    new TableRule(),
+    new HtmlRule(),
+    new ParagraphRule(),
+);
+```
+
+This way you have full control over how the parser works. For more inspiration, you can look at the [rules that come built-in with the package](https://github.com/tempestphp/markdown/tree/main/src/LexerRules).

 ## Performance
 
 This package began as a challenge to make a more performant Markdown parser in pure PHP. The primary performance gain is from not relying on regex but instead using a simple lexer to tokenize Markdown files and convert them to HTML.
