About the Markdown Editor

A web tool that converts Markdown into HTML and previews it in real-time. It supports standard Markdown (GitHub Flavored Markdown), so headings, lists, tables, code blocks, and links are rendered instantly. The rendered HTML is sanitized before display, so you can preview and copy it safely. All processing happens in your browser, and your text is never sent to any server.

FAQ

Is the Markdown editor free to use?
Yes, it is completely free. No registration required.
Is my text saved or sent anywhere?
No, your Markdown is never sent to or stored on any server. Conversion and preview happen entirely in your browser, so even confidential documents are safe.
Which Markdown syntax is supported?
It supports GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM): headings, bold/italic, lists, ordered lists, blockquotes, code blocks, tables, links, images, and more. Line breaks are also enabled.
Is the preview safe from XSS?
Yes. The converted HTML is sanitized with DOMPurify to remove dangerous scripts and event handlers before it is displayed, so malicious code cannot run.
Can I use the generated HTML directly on my website?
The HTML you copy with the "Copy HTML" button can be pasted into a blog, CMS, or email. The appearance depends on your site CSS, so adjust styles as needed.
Can I use it on my smartphone?
Yes, it works on smartphones, tablets, and PCs. On mobile you can switch between the "Edit" and "Preview" tabs for comfortable editing.
How do I use the formatting toolbar?
Use the "Heading", "Bold", "Link", "List", "Code", and "Table" buttons above the editor to insert the matching Markdown syntax automatically. You do not need to memorize the syntax — just click a button. If you select some text first, the formatting is applied to that selection.
Can I save my document as a file?
Yes. The "Save Markdown" button downloads your input as a .md file, and the "Save HTML" button downloads the converted output as a standalone .html file you can open in any browser. The download is generated entirely in your browser, so no file is ever sent to a server.
