Frequently asked questions

Is my text uploaded anywhere?

No — rendering happens entirely in your browser. Drafts, notes and README files never leave your device.

Which Markdown syntax is supported?

Standard Markdown plus the GitHub extensions people expect: tables, fenced code blocks, task lists and strikethrough.

Is the HTML output safe to embed?

Yes — the output is sanitized, which strips script tags and event-handler attributes. You still control where you embed it, so treat pasted third-party Markdown with normal caution.

Why does my line break not show up?

Standard Markdown joins single line breaks into one paragraph. End a line with two spaces or leave a blank line between paragraphs.

Can I convert HTML back to Markdown here?

No — this tool goes one way, Markdown to HTML. Tell us if you need the reverse and we'll consider adding it.
