Preview
Raw HTML in your markdown is shown as text, not executed — the preview only renders markdown constructs.
What is the Markdown Editor?
A Markdown editor with live preview shows your formatted result beside the source as you type. This one supports headings, tables, task lists, fenced code, blockquotes and footnote-style links, keeps a document outline, and exports either the raw .md or a self-contained HTML file.
Frequently asked questions
Is my draft saved if I close the tab?
Yes. The draft is written to your browser local storage as you type and restored when you return. It is stored only on your device, so clearing site data or switching browsers loses it — export the .md if it matters.
Can I paste HTML into the Markdown?
You can paste it, but it renders as visible text rather than executing. The preview escapes all input before generating markup, which means a pasted <script> or an onerror attribute cannot run. That is deliberate: the tool renders untrusted text safely.
Does it support GitHub-flavoured Markdown tables and task lists?
Yes. Pipe tables with alignment markers, and - [ ] / - [x] task lists both render, along with strikethrough and fenced code blocks with a language label.
