About Markdown to HTML

Markdown to HTML converts a small subset of Markdown — headings (#, ##, ###), bold (**text**), italic (*text*), and simple list items (- item) — into a complete HTML document, entirely in your browser. Unlike this site's Markdown Editor and Previewer, the output here is displayed as HTML source text in a read-only box, not rendered live, so there's no injection risk from pasted content.

How to use Markdown to HTML

  1. 1Paste or type your Markdown into the input box.
  2. 2Click 'Convert' to generate a full HTML document as text.
  3. 3Review the generated HTML in the output box.
  4. 4Click 'Copy' to copy it to your clipboard.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Markdown to HTML free to use?

Yes, it's completely free with no signup required.

What Markdown syntax does it support?

Only headings, bold, italic, and simple list items. Links, images, code blocks, tables, and blockquotes aren't supported.

Does it convert in real time as I type?

No — you need to click 'Convert' each time; output doesn't update automatically.

Is my data uploaded to a server?

No, conversion happens entirely in your browser.

Tips & Tricks

  • Stick to headings, bold, italic, and list items — other Markdown syntax passes through as plain text rather than being converted.
  • The output is a complete, standalone HTML document (with doctype, head, and body), ready to save as an .html file.
  • List items aren't wrapped in a <ul> or <ol> container, so you may want to add that manually for fully valid HTML.
  • Click 'Convert' again after editing your Markdown, since the output doesn't refresh automatically.
