Markdown is a lightweight markup language that lets you write formatted content using plain text syntax. It's the standard for README files, documentation, blog posts, and technical writing. Our markdown editor provides real-time preview with GitHub-flavored markdown support, making it easy to see exactly how your content will render before publishing. Perfect for developers, technical writers, and anyone who works with markdown regularly.
How to Use This Tool
Write Your Markdown
Type or paste your markdown content in the editor. Use the formatting toolbar for quick access to common elements like headings, bold, italic, links, and code blocks.
Preview in Real-Time
Watch your formatted content appear instantly in the preview pane. Toggle between editor-only, preview-only, or split view based on your preference.
Use Templates and Shortcuts
Start with pre-built templates for README files, blog posts, or documentation. Use keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl+B for bold, Ctrl+I for italic) to write faster.
Export Your Content
Export your finished markdown as a .md file for use in repositories, or convert to HTML for web publishing. Your content auto-saves locally as you type.

Common Use Cases
GitHub README Files
Create professional README files for your repositories with badges, installation instructions, API documentation, and contribution guidelines.
Technical Documentation
Write clear, well-structured documentation with code examples, tables, and organized sections. Perfect for API docs, user guides, and wikis.
Blog Posts and Articles
Draft blog content in markdown before publishing to platforms like Dev.to, Hashnode, or static site generators like Jekyll or Hugo.
Note-Taking and Planning
Use markdown for meeting notes, project planning, and personal knowledge management. Works great with tools like Obsidian and Notion.
Best Practices
Use semantic headings
Start with one H1 for the main title, then use H2 for major sections and H3 for subsections. Proper heading hierarchy improves readability and accessibility.
Add alt text to images
Always include descriptive alt text in your image syntax: . This improves accessibility and helps if images fail to load.
Use fenced code blocks with language
Specify the programming language after opening backticks (```javascript) to enable syntax highlighting. Makes code much more readable.
Break up long content
Use horizontal rules (---) to separate major sections, and keep paragraphs short. White space improves readability, especially in technical content.
Preview before publishing
Always check your rendered output before committing or publishing. Different platforms may render markdown slightly differently.
