Is my Markdown text sent to a server?

No. Conversion happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your text never leaves your device.

Which Markdown elements are supported?

Headings (h1–h6), bold, italic, bold+italic, strikethrough, inline code, fenced code blocks, links, images, unordered lists, ordered lists, blockquotes, and horizontal rules.

Does the output include a full HTML document?

No. The tool outputs a fragment of HTML — the converted body content only. This is typically what you want to embed in an existing page or template.

Can I use the output directly in a web page?

Yes. Copy the HTML output and paste it into the body of your page. Pair it with your own CSS to style headings, lists, code blocks, and blockquotes.

Are HTML special characters escaped?

Characters inside fenced code blocks are escaped (&, ) to prevent code from being interpreted as HTML. Content outside code blocks is converted as-is.

Does it support GitHub-Flavored Markdown (GFM)?

The converter supports the most common GFM features: fenced code blocks and strikethrough. GFM tables are not generated by this converter — use the Table Generator tool to produce Markdown tables that you can then convert here.

How do I convert HTML back to Markdown?

Use the HTML to Markdown tool — it performs the reverse conversion.

Does this work offline?

Yes. Once the page has loaded, the converter works without a network connection.
