About this tool
About
This free Markdown preview editor shows a live HTML preview as you write. Copy or download Markdown and sanitized HTML—no signup, nothing uploaded.
How it works
Type or paste Markdown in the editor. The tool converts it to HTML in your browser with GFM features like tables, then sanitizes the HTML before showing the preview or exporting a file. Your draft can be remembered in local storage on this device.
Steps
- Paste or type Markdown (or load the sample).
- Watch the live preview update on the right (or below on mobile).
- Copy Markdown or HTML when ready.
- Download a .md or .html file if you need a file export.
Frequently asked questions
Is Markdown Preview free?
Yes. It is free to use with no signup. Preview and export as often as you need.
Is my Markdown uploaded?
No. Parsing and preview run entirely in your browser. Content is not sent to Utility Tools servers.
Is the HTML safe?
Preview and HTML export are sanitized to strip scripts and risky tags. Prefer Markdown for content; do not rely on raw HTML passthrough.
What Markdown flavor is supported?
GitHub-flavored Markdown (GFM), including tables, strikethrough, and fenced code blocks.
Can I download the preview?
Yes. Download a .md file of your source or a .html file that wraps the sanitized preview in a simple HTML document.
Does it support Mermaid or math?
Not in this version. Stick to standard Markdown and GFM for reliable preview and export.
