Examples

Paste your repo README.md and get HTML ready to drop into Ghost, WordPress, or any CMS that accepts HTML.

Generate email HTML

Write the email body in Markdown for readability, convert to HTML, and paste into your email client's HTML view — much faster than hand-writing tables.

Build static-site content

Useful for SSG users who occasionally need to inline HTML (in a component, in a JSX expression) but prefer authoring in Markdown.

Common use cases

Converting documentation to publishable HTML
Authoring marketing emails in Markdown and rendering to HTML
Generating help-centre articles from Markdown source
Preparing release notes for a website or in-app changelog
Producing static HTML pages without a full build pipeline

Troubleshooting

Inline HTML got escaped.: CommonMark allows raw HTML by default. If yours is escaped, check the "allow inline HTML" option or switch the dialect to GitHub-flavoured Markdown.
Tables not rendering.: Plain CommonMark doesn't include tables. Enable GFM (GitHub Flavored Markdown) for table, strikethrough, and task-list support.
Code blocks lost their language hint.: Use triple-backtick fences with a language tag (```js). The output adds a language-js class on the <code> tag for syntax highlighters like Prism or highlight.js.
