Frequently Asked Questions
What is Markdown?
▼
Markdown is a lightweight markup language that uses simple, readable syntax to format text. It was created by John Gruber in 2004 and is now widely used for documentation, README files, blogs, and content management systems. You can use symbols like # for headings, * for bold/italic, and [] for links.
How do I write bold text in Markdown?
▼
You can make text bold in three ways:
**text** or __text__ (both create bold text) or ***text*** (bold and italic). Use whichever syntax you prefer - they all produce the same result.
What's the difference between ordered and unordered lists?
▼
Unordered lists use bullet points and are created with
- item or * item. Ordered lists show numbers and are created with 1. item, 2. item, etc. Use unordered lists for non-sequential items and ordered lists when sequence matters.
How do I create a code block in Markdown?
▼
Wrap code in triple backticks (```) on separate lines. You can optionally specify the language for syntax highlighting. Example:
For inline code, use single backticks:
```javascript
console.log("Hello");
```For inline code, use single backticks:
`inline code`
Can this editor convert HTML to Markdown?
▼
Yes! Our HTML to Markdown converter uses intelligent parsing to transform HTML elements into clean Markdown syntax. It handles headings, paragraphs, links, images, emphasis, code blocks, lists, tables, blockquotes, and more. Simply paste your HTML and click Convert.
Is my work automatically saved?
▼
Yes! The Live Editor automatically saves your work to your browser's local storage every time you type. Your markdown is saved locally on your device, so you can close and reopen the page without losing your work. However, this is local storage only - to back up your work, copy and save it elsewhere.
