What it handles

GitHub Flavored Markdown
Tables, task lists, strikethrough, footnotes and autolinks render the way GitHub shows them.
Math and diagrams
$…$ and $$…$$ formulas are typeset with KaTeX, and mermaid code blocks become diagrams.
Highlighted code
Fenced code is colored for common languages, in light and dark mode.
An editor that helps
Markdown is colored as you type; Ctrl+B, Ctrl+I and Ctrl+K add bold, italics and links, and the toolbar adds headings, lists and tables.
Scroll sync
The preview follows the editor, so long documents stay side by side.
Export
Copy the rendered HTML, download Markdown or a complete HTML page, or open the text in another converter.

Questions and answers

How do I preview a Markdown file?

Open the .md file here or paste its text; the preview shows it the way GitHub would. In VS Code, press Ctrl+Shift+V (Cmd+Shift+V on a Mac) to open its built-in preview.

Does the preview match GitHub?

It follows GitHub Flavored Markdown: tables, task lists, strikethrough, footnotes and autolinks, plus math in dollar signs and Mermaid diagrams, which GitHub also renders.

How do I write math?

Put a formula inside a sentence between single dollar signs, as in $E = mc^2$, and a formula on its own lines between double dollar signs.

How do I draw a diagram?

Write the diagram in a code block marked mermaid, such as flowchart LR followed by A --> B. The preview draws it, and shows the error if the diagram has a mistake.

Is my text saved?

The text lives in this tab only, and reloading the page brings back the sample. Download a .md file to keep your work.

Is my text uploaded anywhere?

No. The editor and the preview run in your browser, so the text never leaves your device.
