How it works
Paste Markdown on the left and see the rendered result on the right instantly — headings,
bold and italic text, links, images, blockquotes, nested and task lists, tables, inline code
and fenced code blocks are all supported (GitHub-flavoured basics). Flip on
Show HTML source to read the generated HTML, then copy it or download a ready-to-open
.html file; Download .md saves your Markdown back out unchanged.
The Markdown is parsed by a small JavaScript renderer that runs entirely in your browser — nothing is uploaded, so drafts, README files and private notes never leave your device. Any raw HTML in your Markdown is escaped and shown as literal text instead of being executed, so pasting untrusted content is safe.
Frequently asked questions
How do I preview a Markdown file online?
Open the Markdown file in any text editor, copy its contents and paste them into the Markdown box on the left. The rendered preview appears on the right as you type, with no upload, no account and no software to install. Tick "Show HTML source" to read the HTML the Markdown produces.
Is my Markdown uploaded anywhere?
No. The Markdown is parsed and rendered by JavaScript running in your own browser, so nothing you paste is sent to a server, logged or stored. That makes it safe for private READMEs, work notes and unpublished drafts, and it keeps working once the page has loaded even if you go offline.
What Markdown syntax does the preview support?
Headings, bold, italic and strikethrough, inline code and fenced code blocks, links, images, blockquotes, horizontal rules, ordered, unordered and nested lists, task lists and GitHub-style tables. Raw HTML inside your Markdown is escaped and shown as plain text rather than executed, so pasted content can never run scripts.
