Frequently Asked Questions

What is Markdown?

Markdown is a lightweight markup language created by John Gruber in 2004. It lets you write formatted text using plain-text syntax that is easy to read and write. It is widely used for README files, documentation, blogs, and note-taking.

What Markdown features does this previewer support?

This previewer supports headings (h1–h6), bold, italic, inline code, fenced code blocks, unordered and ordered lists, links, blockquotes, horizontal rules, tables with column alignment, and paragraphs.

Is my Markdown content sent to a server?

No. All parsing and rendering happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your content never leaves your device, so it is completely private.

Can I copy the rendered HTML?

Yes! Click the 'Copy HTML' button to copy the generated HTML markup to your clipboard. You can then paste it into any HTML document, CMS, or email template.

Why does my preview look different from GitHub?

Different Markdown renderers may handle edge cases differently. This tool implements the most common Markdown conventions. For GitHub-specific features like task lists or emoji shortcodes, use GitHub's own preview.
