HTML WYSIWYG Editor Online — Free

Runs 100% in your browser — your files never leave your device.

Writing HTML by hand is unnecessary when the goal is a formatted content fragment. Use the rich-text toolbar for headings, emphasis, lists, code, and blockquotes, then inspect, edit, and copy the generated HTML. The editor library loads only when this page opens.

How it works

  1. 1

    Edit the rich-text document

    Apply formatting from the toolbar

  3. 3

    Copy or edit the HTML source

About this tool

What you get on each side

The editor shows a rich-text surface and its HTML source in sync: format visually and the markup updates; paste or edit markup and the visual follows. The output is plain HTML — no framework, no external dependency, no lock-in.

Where it fits the workflow

Email body HTML, CMS field content, quick markup fixes, and teaching what rich text produces behind the toolbar. It answers "what HTML does this button actually write" instantly, which makes it a learning tool as much as an editor.

Clean output matters

Pasting from word processors drags proprietary markup with it. Type in the visual editor or paste as plain text, then read the source side — clean HTML from the start saves a debugging session when the content reaches its destination.

Frequently asked questions

Is the HTML I produce safe to paste into my site?

It is well-formed HTML, but user-generated content anywhere should be sanitized server-side before rendering — rich text is a common injection vector regardless of how tidy it looks.

Can I edit the HTML directly?

Yes — the source side is editable and the visual view re-renders as you type. Switch sides freely; they stay in sync.

Does my work save anywhere?

No — the editor holds content in memory only. Copy the HTML out before closing the tab; nothing is stored or sent.
