Pypa/readme is what Warehouse uses to render rst and markdown long_descriptions to safe HTML. https://github.com/pypa/readme_renderer
There are a number of org-mode implementations; even for a few for Vim and Sublime. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Org-mode#Integration ``conda install pandoc`` is the quickest way to install pandoc, AFAIU. The last time I installed pandoc with os packages it pulled in a bunch of Haskell packages. Python-only is the status quo for pypa/readme.
