Limitations:

  • This converter is designed for quick previews and HTML/text conversion, not for validating every platform-specific Markdown extension.
  • Not supported: Mermaid diagrams, math expressions (LaTeX), YAML front matter, HTML passthrough, footnotes, definition lists, and custom containers.
  • Code syntax highlighting is not applied — fenced code blocks receive a language class but no colorization.
  • Privacy: your Markdown is processed locally in the browser and is never uploaded.
  • Sanitization: HTML output is cleaned — raw HTML in input is escaped and unsafe URL schemes (javascript:, data:) are blocked.
