Just convert it to html with that package, and then do this
$text = strip_tags($html);

remove markdown from string
A product description can contain markdown, but for some kind of warehousing the description needs to be loose of markdown.
Using this package to render markdown:
https://github.com/GrahamCampbell/Laravel-Markdown
But for some kind of machine readable description I would need to make sure a string doesn't contain any markdown, any idea how to do so?

@Sinnbeck That's a way to go, but this will remove f.e. tags but the links will remain, an idea how to remove tags and "links" (ressource links), since the description may contain
tags / markdown image include too?

@t0berius I am quite sure that images will just be removed, and links will be turned into whatever is between the tags

@Sinnbeck Removing MD is not same like strip_tags! Example after strip tags:
