Markdown to HTML Converter

What is Markdown to HTML Converter?

Paste GitHub-flavored Markdown and see the rendered HTML instantly, useful for previewing a README, a comment, or any Markdown content before it's published, or for getting the raw HTML to embed elsewhere. Conversion runs live as you type, entirely in your browser, so you can check exactly how a README, changelog, or forum post will render before it goes anywhere public.

How to Use Markdown to HTML

1. 1

   Paste the Markdown: Enter GitHub-flavored Markdown, such as a README draft.

2. 2

   Read the Rendered Result Instantly: The rendered preview and raw HTML appear automatically as you type.

3. 3

   Copy the HTML: Use the copy button to copy the raw HTML for a CMS or email template.

How It Works

The Markdown is parsed into its structural elements (headings, paragraphs, lists, emphasis, code spans) and each one is rendered as its corresponding HTML tag: a heading becomes `<h2>`, `**bold**` becomes `<strong>`, a bullet list becomes `<ul><li>`, and so on, using the GitHub-flavored Markdown dialect.

Example

## Hello
**bold** and _italic_ text.

- one
- two

<h2>Hello</h2>
<p><strong>bold</strong> and <em>italic</em> text.</p>
<ul>
<li>one</li>
<li>two</li>
</ul>

The heading becomes `<h2>`, the emphasis markers become `<strong>`/`<em>`, and the list becomes `<ul><li>`.

Common Use Cases

Previewing exactly how a README or changelog will render before pushing it, or grabbing the raw HTML output to paste into a CMS or email template that expects HTML rather than Markdown source.
