What Is Markdown?

Markdown is a lightweight markup language created by John Gruber in 2004. It uses simple text formatting symbols — like # for headings, ** for bold, and - for list items — that convert to HTML. Markdown is widely used in GitHub README files, documentation, blogging platforms (Ghost, Jekyll, Hugo), note-taking apps (Notion, Obsidian), and static site generators.

Supported Markdown Syntax

This converter supports all standard Markdown elements: headings (# to ######), bold (**text**), italic (*text*), links, images, ordered and unordered lists, code blocks (fenced with backticks), inline code, blockquotes (>), horizontal rules (---), and tables. The output is clean, semantic HTML ready to use in any web page.
