How to convert Markdown to HTML

Turn Markdown drafts into HTML markup with Toolora’s Markdown → HTML tool.

Why convert Markdown?

Markdown is easy to write. HTML is what browsers and many CMS pipelines expect. Converting helps when you need paste-ready markup from notes or README-style content.

Steps

1) Open Markdown → HTML. 2) Paste your Markdown — HTML source updates as you type. There is no Run button. 3) Copy the HTML output into your template, CMS, or email editor. Use Markdown Preview if you want a rendered reading pane instead of source.

What is supported

The converter uses GitHub-flavored Markdown basics such as headings, emphasis, lists, and links. Review the HTML before publishing if you need strict sanitization.

Want a readable preview instead?

Use Markdown Preview at /tools/markdown-preview when you want formatted headings, lists, and emphasis rendered on the page rather than HTML source. Preview sanitizes before display; the HTML converter still emits tags you must treat as untrusted if the Markdown came from someone else.

Worked example

A heading # Hello, a list, and **bold** become an h1, a ul, and a strong. Fenced code becomes a pre/code block depending on the renderer. HTML Formatter at /tools/html-formatter can indent the emitted markup. This is not an email-CSS inliner and not a full GitHub README clone (no issue widgets).

Privacy

Drafts stay in the browser. Related: /tools/markdown-preview, /tools/html-formatter, /tools/html-encode-decode if you need entities instead of tags.
