How it works
Paste Markdown on the left and the converter turns it into clean, readable HTML on the
right as you type — headings, bold and italic, links, images,
ordered and nested lists, blockquotes, fenced code blocks, horizontal rules,
strikethrough and GitHub-flavored tables are all supported. Switch to the Preview tab to
see how the result renders, tick “Wrap in a full HTML document” when you need a
standalone .html file, and tick the line-break option for GitHub-style
single-newline behaviour.
Any raw HTML inside your Markdown is escaped rather than passed through, so the output is safe to drop into a CMS, an email template or a static site. The whole conversion runs in your browser with plain JavaScript — your Markdown is never uploaded, which matters for drafts, internal docs and README files that are not public yet.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert Markdown to HTML?
Paste your Markdown into the left-hand box. The HTML appears on the right immediately — there is no Convert button to press. Use the Preview tab to check how it renders, then hit Copy HTML to put the markup on your clipboard, or Download .html to save it as a file. Tick "Wrap in a full HTML document" first if you need a standalone page with a doctype, head and body rather than just the fragment.
Does this Markdown to HTML converter support tables and code blocks?
Yes. Alongside the basics — headings, bold and italic, links, images, ordered, unordered and nested lists, blockquotes and horizontal rules — it handles GitHub-flavored tables with column alignment, fenced code blocks (the language tag becomes a class="language-…" on the code element), inline code, strikethrough, Setext headings and backslash escapes. There is also an option to treat single line breaks as <br>, the way GitHub comments do.
Is my Markdown uploaded to a server?
No. The whole converter is JavaScript running inside your browser tab, so your Markdown never leaves your device — safe for unpublished drafts, internal documentation and private README files. It also keeps working if your connection drops after the page has loaded. Any raw HTML in your Markdown is escaped rather than passed straight through, so the generated markup is safe to paste into a CMS or email template.
