How to use Markdown to HTML Converter

Developer tools guide for markdown to html converter users.

Markdown is the go-to format for documentation, README files, and content writing. Converting it to HTML is required when embedding in a web page, CMS, or email template. This tool supports standard Markdown plus GFM extensions: tables, strikethrough, task lists, and fenced code blocks.

What this tool does

Parses Markdown (CommonMark + GFM extensions) and outputs clean, semantic HTML. Includes syntax highlighting for code blocks.

Supported syntax

Headings (# ## ###), bold (**), italic (*), links, images, blockquotes, ordered and unordered lists, tables, code (inline and fenced), task lists.

How to use it

Paste Markdown on the left. The HTML preview and source update live on the right. Copy the HTML or the raw source.

Quick checklist

Toggle between rendered preview and raw HTML source.
GFM tables: separate header with |---|---| row.
Fenced code blocks with language hint: ```javascript.
Copy the HTML source to paste into a CMS or template.

Answers

Markdown to HTML Converter FAQs

Does this support GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM)?

Yes — tables, task lists (- [ ] / - [x]), strikethrough (~~text~~), and fenced code blocks with language identifiers.

Is the output safe to embed in a page?

The HTML is generated from Markdown. If your Markdown contains raw HTML tags, they are included in the output — sanitise before embedding user-supplied Markdown.

Can I convert HTML back to Markdown?

Not in this tool. HTML-to-Markdown conversion is lossy and not currently supported.

Does this handle code syntax highlighting?

The raw HTML includes a language class on the code element. Syntax highlighting requires a separate library like Prism.js or Highlight.js in the target page.
