How Markdown to HTML Works
The converter recognizes the most common Markdown syntax — headings (# through ######), bold and italic, links and images, inline code, fenced code blocks, block quotes, ordered and unordered lists, horizontal rules and paragraphs — and rewrites each into its equivalent HTML tag.
How to Use This Tool
- Paste your Markdown into the input box.
- Select Convert.
- Copy the HTML, download it as a file, or check the rendered preview.
Example
The Markdown ## Section
Some **bold** text. converts to <h2>Section</h2>
<p>Some <strong>bold</strong> text.</p>.
Helpful Tips
- Leave a blank line between paragraphs and blocks (headings, lists, code fences) — Markdown uses blank lines to tell them apart.
- Fenced code blocks (```) preserve their content exactly, including indentation, and don't process any Markdown syntax inside them.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this support every Markdown feature?
It covers the common subset used in everyday writing — headings, emphasis, links, images, lists, code, quotes and rules — rather than every extension of every Markdown flavor.
Is my text uploaded anywhere?
No, conversion happens entirely in your browser.
Can I see what the HTML will look like rendered?
Yes, check "Show rendered preview" to see the formatted result instead of the raw HTML source.
This tool runs entirely in your browser. Your input is not uploaded to any server.
