Frequently Asked Questions
Markdown to HTML conversion explained.
What Markdown flavor is supported?
CommonMark with GFM (GitHub Flavored Markdown) extensions via marked.js. This includes fenced code blocks, tables, task lists, strikethrough, and autolinks.
Is the output HTML safe to use directly?
With sanitization enabled, script tags and dangerous attributes (onclick, onerror, etc.) are stripped. For production use, always sanitize HTML with a server-side library (DOMPurify, bleach) rather than relying solely on client-side sanitization.
Does it support tables?
Yes. GFM-style tables (using | separators) are supported and render as HTML <table> elements. Alignment colons (:---:, ---:) are respected.
Can I convert HTML back to Markdown?
Not in this version — HTML to Markdown conversion (turndown) is planned. For now, use the Diff Checker or JSON Formatter for text manipulation.
Why does my code block show as plain text?
Code blocks require fenced syntax (``` or ~~~) or 4-space indentation per CommonMark spec. Inline code uses single backticks. Syntax highlighting in the preview uses browser defaults — a full syntax highlighter (Prism, highlight.js) can be added to your own page using the HTML output.
