Markdown to HTML Converter
Paste Markdown or drop .md files and get clean, safe HTML instantly — a snippet for your CMS or a complete styled page — with GitHub tables, task lists, alerts and syntax-highlighted code.
At a glance
- Converts GitHub Flavored Markdown — tables with alignment, task lists, strikethrough, autolinks and GitHub alerts — to HTML as you type.
- Outputs an HTML snippet, a full styled page (GitHub-like CSS with light and dark themes) or a plain full page; title, description and language come from YAML front matter.
- Syntax-highlights code blocks in 20+ languages with highlight.js classes, or emits plain language-* classes for Prism.
- Options for heading IDs, # anchor links, external links in a new tab, GitHub-style line breaks, front matter and minified output.
- Removes unsafe HTML — scripts, event handlers and iframes — with DOMPurify, so the output is safe to publish.
- Converts several .md files at once and downloads them as a .zip. Everything runs in your browser; files are never uploaded.
Step by step

Features
Everything you need, nothing you don’t
Clean output
Semantic HTML without inline styles — headings, lists, tables and code exactly as you wrote them.
Snippet or full page
Paste a snippet into WordPress, Ghost or an email, or download a standalone styled page.
Highlighted code
Code blocks come out with highlight.js markup and a matching theme in the styled page.
Safe to publish
Raw HTML in the Markdown is sanitised, so copied content can’t carry scripts.
Batch conversion
Drop a folder’s worth of .md files and get every page as .html in one zip.

Markdown and the HTML it becomes
| Markdown | HTML |
|---|---|
| # Title | <h1 id="title">Title</h1> |
| bold and _italic_ | <strong>bold</strong> and <em>italic</em> |
| link | <a href="https://example.com">link</a> |
| - item | <ul><li>item</li></ul> |
| - [x] done | <li><input type="checkbox" checked disabled> done</li> |
code | <code>code</code> |
| | a | b | table | <table> with <thead> and <tbody> |
Snippet or full page?
Use the HTML snippet when the HTML goes inside an existing page — a CMS editor, a blog template, a help centre or an email builder. They already have their own <head> and styles.
Use a full page for a standalone file you open, share or host on its own: documentation, release notes or a README turned into a web page. The styled version embeds the CSS, so it looks right without any other files.
