About this tool

How the conversion works

The tool renders your Markdown with a full parser — headings, emphasis, lists, links, images, code blocks, tables, and blockquotes — and emits the equivalent HTML with clean semantic tags. The HTML drops into any page, email template, or CMS field.

Writing once, publishing anywhere

Markdown is the writing format; HTML is the publishing format. Draft in Markdown — fast, readable, diff-friendly — and convert when the content reaches a destination that needs HTML. The conversion is deterministic: the same text always produces the same HTML.

What the HTML contains — and does not

The output carries the semantic structure your Markdown describes, unstyled. Styling belongs to the destination's CSS; if the HTML must include inline styles for a specific email client, add them there — the clean structure is the part worth converting.

Frequently asked questions

Which Markdown flavor does it support?

The common core plus tables — headings, lists, emphasis, links, images, code, blockquotes, and GFM tables. Exotic extensions (footnotes, task lists in some flavors) vary.

Is the HTML sanitized or raw?

Raw — the tool converts what you wrote, including any raw HTML you embedded. Sanitize at the destination if the content will be rendered from untrusted authors.

Can I convert HTML back to Markdown?

HTML-to-Markdown is a different tool — this direction is the writing-to-publishing flow. For the reverse, use a dedicated HTML-to-Markdown converter.
