About this Markdown to HTML Converter
The Markdown to HTML Converter changes common Markdown syntax into standard HTML tags. It supports the everyday formatting most people use: headings, bold and italic text, links and simple bullet lists.
For related tasks, try HTML Minifier, HTML Entity Encoder / Decoder or Meta Tag Generator.
How the calculation works
The converter applies pattern replacements for headings (# through ######), bold (**text**), italic (*text*), links ([text](url)) and lines starting with a dash as list items, then wraps remaining lines in paragraph tags.
How to use it
- Paste Markdown text into the box.
- Select Convert to HTML.
- Copy the generated HTML markup.
Practical example
“# Hello” converts to “<h1>Hello</h1>”, and “**bold**” converts to “<strong>bold</strong>”.
Frequently asked questions
Does it support tables or code blocks?

Is the output identical to a full CommonMark parser?

Can I edit the HTML afterward?
Yes, the output appears in an editable text box.
