Frequently Asked Questions

Markdown is a lightweight markup language that lets you add formatting to plain text using simple symbols. **Bold**, *italic*, # headings, - lists, and [links](url) are all written as plain characters. It was created to be readable as-is and easy to convert to HTML.

This converter supports GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM) via the marked library: headings (# through ######), bold, italic, strikethrough, inline code, fenced code blocks, blockquotes, ordered and unordered lists, tables, horizontal rules, links, and images.

It downloads a complete, self-contained HTML file with embedded CSS styling — headings, code blocks, tables and blockquotes all look clean out of the box. You can open the file directly in any browser or embed the body content into your existing project.

Yes. All generated HTML is sanitized with DOMPurify before rendering, which removes any malicious scripts or dangerous attributes. The output is safe to embed in pages even when handling untrusted Markdown input.

Each toolbar button inserts or wraps Markdown syntax. If you have text selected, the button wraps it — for example, selecting "hello" and clicking Bold produces **hello**. If nothing is selected, a placeholder is inserted at the cursor position that you can replace.

Absolutely. Write your content in the Markdown editor, toggle to HTML Source to inspect the output, then click Download .html for a ready-to-use file or Copy HTML to paste the body content into your CMS, static site generator, or documentation system.
