Write Markdown and see the result instantly
Markdown lets you format text with simple symbols — asterisks for emphasis, hashes for headings — so you write quickly without reaching for a toolbar. The catch is picturing the final output while you type. This editor shows a live preview beside your text, so you can confirm a list, link, or heading renders the way you meant before you paste it into a README, issue, or blog.
How to use it
- Type Markdown in the editor pane.
- Watch the formatted preview update as you go.
- Copy the Markdown source, or take the rendered result.
Handy syntax
#for headings, more hashes for smaller ones.-for bullet lists,1.for numbered.[text](url)for links, backticks for code.
