Markdown to HTML Converter

Convert Markdown to clean semantic HTML. GitHub-Flavored Markdown — tables, fenced code blocks with language classes, task lists, strikethrough, autolinks. Copy raw HTML, view as styled, or download as a standalone HTML file.

How to use the Markdown to HTML Converter

Paste Markdown. The HTML output uses semantic tags (article, section, code) and includes language classes on fenced blocks so any syntax highlighter (highlight.js, Prism, Shiki) can color them. "Download standalone" wraps the output in a complete HTML document with minimal styling.

From Markdown source to semantic HTML

Markdown is convenient to write but the web needs HTML, so at some point the source has to be converted. This tool does that with GitHub-Flavored Markdown rules — tables, fenced code blocks, task lists, strikethrough, and autolinks all convert — and emits clean, semantic markup using tags like article, section, and code rather than div soup.

Fenced code blocks keep their language as a class on the <code> element, so a syntax highlighter such as highlight.js, Prism, or Shiki can color them after the fact. You can copy the raw HTML, view it styled, or download a standalone document with minimal CSS that opens correctly in any browser.

Common use cases

  • Publishing to the web — convert a Markdown draft into HTML for a page or post.
  • Pasting into a CMS — get HTML that a content editor accepts when it has no Markdown mode.
  • Email and newsletters — produce HTML from a Markdown source for a mail template.
  • Static pages — download a standalone HTML file ready to serve as-is.
  • Syntax highlighting — emit code blocks with language classes for highlight.js, Prism, or Shiki.

Frequently asked questions

Which Markdown flavor does it support?

GitHub-Flavored Markdown: tables, fenced code blocks, task lists, strikethrough, and autolinks, in addition to the core CommonMark syntax.

Does it add syntax highlighting to code?

It does not color code itself, but each fenced block becomes a <pre><code> with the fence's language as a class. Pair the output with highlight.js, Prism, or Shiki to apply colors.

What is in the standalone download?

A complete HTML document — doctype, head, and body — with minimal built-in styling, so it opens and reads correctly in any browser without extra files.

Is my Markdown sent to a server?

No. Conversion happens in your browser, so unpublished drafts and internal notes stay on your machine.
