Frequently Asked Questions
What Markdown features are supported?
The editor supports full GitHub-flavored Markdown: headings, bold, italic, strikethrough, links, images, ordered and unordered lists, task lists (checkboxes), tables, blockquotes, fenced code blocks with syntax highlighting, horizontal rules, and inline code. It renders in real time as you type.
How is this different from Markdown to HTML converter?
The Markdown to HTML converter gives you the raw HTML source code to copy into your projects. This Markdown Preview renders the visual output — you see the formatted result as it would appear on a web page. Use the converter when you need HTML code; use this when you want to write and preview content.
Can I export the rendered output?
Yes — copy the rendered HTML source code, download the preview as a standalone HTML file, or copy the raw Markdown. The HTML export includes basic styling so it looks good when opened in a browser without additional CSS.
Does it support syntax highlighting in code blocks?
Yes — fenced code blocks with a language identifier (e.g., ```javascript) are rendered with syntax highlighting for dozens of programming languages. The highlighting helps readers distinguish keywords, strings, comments, and other code elements.
Can I use this for GitHub README files?
Yes — the preview uses GitHub-flavored Markdown (GFM) rendering, so what you see here closely matches what GitHub will display. This makes it ideal for drafting README files, pull request descriptions, issue templates, and wiki pages before committing them.
