Preview

Demo

  • Bold and italic
  • Link
console.log("hello");

Common use cases

  • Preview README sections, release notes, or internal docs before pushing to a repo.
  • Check how emphasis, lists, and code fences render with the site’s sanitization rules.
  • Iterate on support macros or templates that use Markdown snippets.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Pasting untrusted Markdown and expecting zero risk

    Even with sanitization, treat unknown content carefully—links and images can still reference external resources.

  • Assuming every Markdown flavor matches GitHub

    Tables, footnotes, and math extensions differ by processor. Verify on your publishing target.

  • Embedding secrets in fenced code blocks

    Screenshots and shares can leak tokens. Redact before using this tool in shared sessions.

FAQ

Is my Markdown uploaded?

No. Rendering runs in your browser.

Does this match my static site generator?

It uses a consistent Markdown + HTML pipeline for preview only. Final output may still differ slightly.

Can I export HTML?

Copy from the preview when you need static HTML, and re-sanitize if you paste into another system.
