Markdown to HTML Converter

Convert Markdown syntax into clean HTML with live preview.

What Does the Markdown to HTML Converter Do?

This converter transforms Markdown into clean HTML and shows a live rendered preview alongside the raw code. All the everyday syntax is supported — headings, bold/italic, links, images, blockquotes, ordered and unordered lists, inline code, fenced code blocks and tables. Copy the HTML fragment for pasting into a CMS, or download a complete standalone .html document.

How to Convert Markdown

  1. Paste your Markdown into the left box (or click Load Sample to see the syntax in action).
  2. Click Convert to HTML.
  3. Review the rendered preview to confirm everything parsed as intended.
  4. Copy the HTML code, or download it as a full document.

Markdown Syntax Refresher

  • # Heading to ###### Heading — H1 through H6.
  • **bold**, *italic*, `inline code`.
  • [link text](https://url) and ![alt text](image.png).
  • - item / 1. item — bulleted and numbered lists.
  • > quote — blockquotes; three backticks fence a code block.
  • | col | col | rows with a |---|---| separator — tables.

Markdown is the writing format of README files, GitHub, Reddit, Discord and countless note apps — this converter bridges those texts into blogs, newsletters and web pages that need real HTML.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Markdown flavor is supported?

Standard Markdown plus the most-used GitHub-style extensions: fenced code blocks and tables. Exotic extras like footnotes, task-list checkboxes and math blocks are outside scope.

Can I paste the output into WordPress?

Yes — copy the HTML and paste it into a "Custom HTML" block (or the code editor view). The fragment contains no styling, so your theme's typography applies automatically.

Why does my table not render?

Tables need a separator line of dashes between header and body: | Name | Age | then |------|-----| then the data rows. Each row must start and end with a pipe for reliable parsing.

Is raw HTML inside my Markdown kept?

Yes — inline HTML passes through to the output, per the Markdown spec. Only paste Markdown from sources you trust if you plan to publish the result directly.
