How do I open a .md file?

Click 'Upload .md' and select your file, or paste the contents directly into the editor. The Markdown renders instantly — nothing is uploaded to a server.

What's the difference between this and the Markdown to HTML converter?

The Markdown Viewer is built for reading and previewing — GitHub-style display, dark mode, and a side-by-side source/preview layout. The Markdown to HTML converter focuses on producing clean HTML output to reuse elsewhere. Use the viewer to read, the converter to export.

Does it support GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM)?

Yes. Tables, task lists ([ ] and [x]), fenced code blocks with syntax highlighting, blockquotes, headings, and links are all supported, matching how GitHub renders Markdown.

Is my Markdown uploaded anywhere?

No. Parsing, rendering, and sanitizing all happen locally in your browser. Your content never leaves your device, which makes it safe for private or internal documents.

Can I export the rendered result?

Yes. Copy the rendered HTML to your clipboard, or download a complete standalone .html file with GitHub-style styling built in that opens in any browser.
