What is Markdown?
Markdown is a lightweight markup language that uses plain text formatting syntax to create rich documents. Created by John Gruber in 2004, it has become the standard for developer documentation, README files, blog posts, technical writing, and note-taking. GitHub, GitLab, Notion, Obsidian, and countless other tools use Markdown as their primary content format. Its simplicity — headings with #, bold with **, links with []() — makes it fast to write and easy to read in both raw and rendered form.
GitHub-flavored Markdown features
This editor supports GitHub-flavored Markdown (GFM), which extends standard Markdown with features developers rely on daily: fenced code blocks with language-specific syntax highlighting classes, tables with pipe syntax, task lists with checkboxes, strikethrough text with tildes, and auto-linking of URLs. These extensions make GFM the most widely used Markdown dialect in the developer ecosystem, from repository READMEs to issue comments and pull request descriptions.
Using this Markdown editor
The split-pane layout shows your Markdown source on the left and the rendered HTML preview on the right, updating in real time as you type. Write Markdown syntax directly — the editor supports headings, bold, italic, links, images, code blocks, lists, tables, blockquotes, and horizontal rules. Export your work with the Copy Markdown or Copy HTML buttons, and use the word and character count to track document length.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this editor support GitHub-flavored Markdown?
Yes. This editor supports full GFM syntax including fenced code blocks, tables, task lists (checkboxes), strikethrough, auto-linked URLs, and all standard Markdown features like headings, bold, italic, links, images, lists, blockquotes, and horizontal rules.
Can I export the rendered HTML?
Yes. Click the "Copy HTML" button to copy the rendered HTML to your clipboard. You can paste it into any HTML file, email template, CMS, or documentation system. The HTML output is clean and semantic.
Is my content saved?
Content is kept in browser memory while the tab is open but is not persisted to disk or any server. Copy your Markdown source or the rendered HTML before closing the tab if you want to save your work.
