How the markdown to html converter works

Conversion uses marked, one of the standard Markdown parsers in the JavaScript ecosystem, with GitHub-flavored extensions — tables, fenced code blocks and autolinks behave the way GitHub renders them. The output is an HTML fragment ready to paste into a page, CMS field or email template.

The output is a fragment by design — no <html> or <body> wrapper — because the common destinations (CMS bodies, email builders, static-site partials) want exactly that. If pasting into an email tool, remember most of them strip <style>; inline styling has to come from the destination side.

Frequently asked questions

Which Markdown flavor is supported?

GitHub-flavored Markdown via marked: standard CommonMark plus tables, fenced code blocks, strikethrough and autolinks — matching what GitHub, GitLab and most docs tools render.

Why is there no <html> or <head> in the output?

Deliberately — a fragment pastes cleanly into CMS fields, templates and partials. Wrap it yourself only when creating a standalone file.

Is the HTML sanitized?

Raw HTML inside your Markdown passes through, per Markdown spec. Only convert trusted input if the output will be rendered on a site — the same rule as any Markdown pipeline.

Do code blocks keep their language?

Fenced blocks emit <code class="language-x"> — highlight.js/Prism pick that up on the destination page for syntax coloring.

Is my content uploaded?

No — parsing is local; drafts stay on your machine.
