Open Markdown editor →What is the Markdown editor?
A split-pane Markdown editor with a live preview, a formatting toolbar and a word count. You type Markdown on the left and see it rendered on the right, then export to PDF, a standalone HTML file or the raw .md. It works fully offline, autosaves your draft on your device, and nothing is uploaded.
How to use Markdown editor
- Write your Markdown — Type in the left pane. The preview on the right re-renders live as you write, and your draft autosaves automatically.
- Use the toolbar — Apply headings, bold, italic, strikethrough, code, lists, quotes, links, images, tables and dividers with one click instead of typing the syntax.
- Switch the view — Use the Split toggle to show the editor and preview together, or focus on just one pane.
- Export your document — Choose PDF document, HTML file or Markdown (.md) from the export actions to save your work in the format you need.
Frequently asked questions
Which export formats are supported?
You can export to PDF, a standalone .html file or the raw .md source. The filename is taken from your first heading where possible.
Is my document saved if I close the tab?
Yes. Your text autosaves to your browser's local storage on your device, so it's restored when you reopen the editor.
Does the preview support tables and code blocks?
Yes. The preview renders headings, lists, quotes, links, images, tables, inline code and fenced code blocks, so you can check formatting before exporting.
Is the rendered HTML safe?
The Markdown is rendered and then sanitised before it's shown, which strips unsafe markup from the preview and from the exported HTML.
Does it work offline?
Yes. The editor, preview and all three export formats run entirely in your browser, so it keeps working with no connection after the first load.
Tips
- Start your document with a top-level “# Heading” — it's used to name the exported PDF, HTML and .md files.
- Use the table button to drop in a ready-made table skeleton instead of typing the pipes by hand.
- Export to HTML when you want a self-contained page, or PDF when you need a fixed document to share.
