How to use the Markdown to HTML converter
Paste Markdown into the input box. The tool converts it to clean HTML as you type and shows both the raw code and a rendered preview. It supports headings (# to ######), bold (**), italic (* or _), strikethrough (~~), links, images, ordered and unordered lists, blockquotes (>), inline code (`), fenced code blocks (```) and horizontal rules (---).
Why this tool matters
Markdown is the standard writing format for developer documentation, GitHub READMEs, Notion exports, AI chat answers and most static site generators. Many CMS platforms and email tools still expect HTML, though. A reliable conversion saves you from rebuilding the formatting by hand.
Common use cases
- Turning a GitHub README into HTML for a marketing site
- Pasting Notion or Obsidian notes into a WordPress page as proper HTML
- Preparing drafts for email tools that need HTML
- Converting AI-generated Markdown into ready-to-publish HTML
- Building HTML emails from Markdown templates
- Publishing help pages written in Markdown
What the converter supports
The core Markdown syntax: headings, paragraphs, bold and italic, links, images, lists, blockquotes, inline code, fenced code blocks with an optional language tag, and horizontal rules. Tables, footnotes and task lists are not supported yet. For those, use a full library such as marked or markdown-it.
Frequently asked questions
Does it support GitHub Flavored Markdown?
Partly. Fenced code blocks with a language tag and strikethrough work. Tables and task lists are not supported yet.
Is the HTML safe to paste into my CMS?
The output is plain semantic HTML (headings, p, ul, ol, blockquote, code, pre, a, img). Your text is escaped, and unsafe link types such as javascript: are blocked. Test once in your CMS to confirm it looks right.
How is this different from a Markdown preview app?
Most preview apps show the rendered result but make it hard to copy the raw HTML. This tool gives you both: copy-ready code and a preview tab.
