Frequently Asked Questions
Which Markdown features are supported?
The converter supports standard and GitHub Flavored Markdown, including headings, emphasis, lists, tables, task lists, code blocks, blockquotes, and inline HTML.
Is the generated HTML safe for production?
Yes. All output passes through DOMPurify, which removes scripts, unsafe attributes, and disallowed tags so the HTML is safe to embed.
Does the tool upload my content?
No. Everything is processed directly in your browser. Markdown never leaves your device and nothing is logged or stored.
Can I control how links behave?
Use the “Open links in a new tab” toggle to add target and rel attributes automatically, or disable it when a platform manages links for you.
How do I copy rich text to another editor?
Click Copy Rich Text to copy HTML plus a plain text fallback. Most editors paste the formatted content automatically.
What if my Markdown includes custom HTML?
Inline HTML is preserved when it passes sanitization. You can always paste the cleaned HTML into the raw output field for fine-tuning.
