About Markdown to HTML
This markdown to html converter turns plain-text markdown into HTML you can paste into a page. Markdown uses light punctuation for structure, hashes for headings, asterisks for emphasis and lists, backticks for code, which is why it became the default for README files and documentation.
The converter handles the syntax people use most: headings, bold and italic, inline and fenced code, links, images, lists, blockquotes, and horizontal rules. Any raw HTML you paste in is escaped first, so it shows up as text in the preview instead of being rendered.
Write a quick note in markdown, switch to the HTML source tab, and copy the result straight into a CMS or email template. The live preview updates as you type, so you can see exactly how each line will render before you copy anything.
