Frequently asked questions

What is Markdown?

Markdown is a lightweight markup language that uses plain-text formatting syntax. It was created by John Gruber in 2004 to be easy to read and write, and is widely used for documentation, README files, and content writing.

What Markdown syntax is supported?

This editor supports headings (#), bold (**text**), italic (*text*), inline code (`code`), fenced code blocks (```), links ([text](url)), unordered lists (-), ordered lists (1.), blockquotes (>), and horizontal rules (---).

How do I convert Markdown to HTML?

Type or paste your Markdown in the left panel and the HTML preview updates automatically on the right. Click Copy HTML to get the rendered HTML source code.

What's the difference between Markdown flavors?

Different platforms extend the original Markdown spec. GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM) adds tables, task lists, and strikethrough. CommonMark is a strict standardization effort. This editor supports the core syntax common to all flavors.
