Markdown to HTML Converter

What Markdown to HTML does

This tool converts Markdown-formatted text into HTML with a live preview, so you can write in Markdown's simpler syntax and get ready-to-use HTML output for a webpage, email, or CMS.

How to use it

1. Type or paste your Markdown into the input box.
2. Watch the live preview render as HTML alongside it.
3. Click Copy HTML to copy the generated HTML code.

Common uses

• Converting a README or documentation file written in Markdown into HTML for a website.
• Turning Markdown notes into formatted HTML for an email newsletter.
• Previewing how Markdown will render before publishing it to a blog or CMS.
• Converting Markdown content for a platform that only accepts raw HTML.
• Quickly checking Markdown syntax (like tables or nested lists) renders as expected.

Good to know

Markdown syntax has several dialects (CommonMark, GitHub Flavored Markdown, and others) with small differences in table syntax, task lists, and strikethrough support — if a specific construct isn't rendering the way you expect, it may be from a dialect this converter doesn't support exactly the same way.

Markdown was created specifically to let people write formatted documents using a syntax that's readable even in its raw, unrendered form — a deliberate contrast to HTML, which is difficult to read as plain text. That readability is exactly why it became the standard for README files, technical documentation, and note-taking apps, where content often needs to be both human-readable in its source form and convertible to properly formatted HTML for display.
