Overview

Markdown is a lightweight markup language that lets you write formatted text using plain text syntax. Created by John Gruber in 2004, it has become the standard writing format for GitHub README files, documentation, technical blogs, note-taking apps, and countless content management systems. Instead of clicking formatting buttons or writing HTML tags, you type simple characters: **bold**, *italic*, # Heading, - List item, and [link](url). Our Markdown Previewer shows you a live, real-time HTML rendering of your Markdown as you type — so you always see exactly how the formatted output will look. Copy the rendered HTML to paste into any system that accepts HTML, or download your Markdown file for use in GitHub, Notion, Obsidian, or any other Markdown-aware platform. This tool is invaluable for developers writing documentation, bloggers writing articles, and anyone learning Markdown syntax for the first time.
