How to use Markdown Editor
- 1Write Markdown in the editor
Start typing in the left pane. The editor supports GitHub Flavored Markdown — headings, bold, italic, tables, code blocks, blockquotes, and more.
- 2Use the toolbar for quick formatting
Click any toolbar button to wrap selected text or insert a snippet at the cursor. Buttons cover bold, italic, headings H1–H3, inline code, code blocks, links, images, lists, blockquotes, tables, and horizontal rules.
- 3See the live preview on the right
The right pane renders your Markdown as HTML in real time. Scroll through the preview to check headings, tables, and code block formatting as you write.
- 4Export or copy the result
Click 'Export HTML' to download a self-contained .html file with clean CSS, ready to open in any browser. Use 'Copy HTML' to copy the raw HTML snippet, or 'Copy MD' to copy your Markdown source.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does my content leave the browser?
- No. All Markdown parsing and HTML rendering happens locally in your browser. Your text is never sent to any server and is automatically saved to localStorage so it survives a page refresh.
Which Markdown flavour is supported?
- The editor uses GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM) via the marked library. This includes standard Markdown plus GFM extensions: tables, strikethrough (~~text~~), fenced code blocks with language hints, and autolinks.
Can I use the exported HTML file directly?
- Yes. The exported file is a self-contained HTML document with embedded CSS. You can open it directly in a browser, email it, or paste its <body> content into a CMS.
How do I insert a table, code block, or image?
- Use the toolbar buttons. 'Table' inserts a sample Markdown table you can edit. 'Code' wraps selected text in a fenced code block. 'Img' inserts an image snippet — replace the placeholder URL with your image's address.
