FAQs

What is Markdown?

Markdown is a lightweight markup language used to write formatted text. It's simpler than HTML and widely used for documentation, blogs, and README files.

Is the HTML safe to use?

Yes. The converter produces clean, semantic HTML that's safe to embed directly in your web pages.

Can I convert HTML back to Markdown?

This tool converts one way (Markdown → HTML). For the reverse, you'd need an HTML to Markdown converter.

Are my files uploaded to any server?

No. All conversion happens in your browser. Your Markdown is never sent to any server.
