Frequently Asked Questions

Markdown is a lightweight markup language created by John Gruber in 2004. It lets you write plain-text documents using simple symbols like # for headings, ** for bold, and - for lists, which get converted to formatted HTML. It's used everywhere: GitHub READMEs, documentation, blog posts, note-taking apps like Notion and Obsidian.
GitHub-Flavored Markdown (GFM) is an extension of standard Markdown created by GitHub. It adds tables (using | pipes), fenced code blocks (```), task list checkboxes (- [ ] and - [x]), strikethrough text (~~text~~), and autolinks. This tool fully supports GFM.
Use pipes (|) to separate columns and hyphens (-) for the header separator. Example:

| Name | Age |
| --- | --- |
| Alice | 30 |

Colons in the separator control alignment: :--- left, :---: center, ---: right.
Use - [ ] for an unchecked task and - [x] for a checked task. GitHub-flavored Markdown renders these as interactive checkboxes in READMEs and issues.
No. All Markdown parsing and rendering runs 100% in your browser using the marked.js library. Your text is never sent to any server. You can even use this tool offline after the page has loaded once.
