About the Markdown viewer

Paste any Markdown — a README, blog post draft, or documentation snippet — and Handytool renders it as styled HTML instantly in your browser. The Markdown viewer supports headings, bold, italic, lists, blockquotes, code blocks, tables, and links. Because nothing is uploaded, your content stays completely private on your machine.

Markdown viewer features

  • 01

    Real HTML preview

    See your Markdown rendered as it would look in a browser — styled headings, formatted code blocks, working links — not just raw HTML source.

  • 02

    Full CommonMark support

    Headings, bold, italic, strikethrough, lists, blockquotes, tables, fenced code blocks, inline code, links and images are all rendered correctly.

  • 03

    100% private, works offline

    Rendering happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your Markdown never leaves your device and the tool keeps working without a network connection once loaded.

Markdown viewer FAQ

How do I preview Markdown online?
Paste your Markdown into the left pane and click Preview. The right pane shows the rendered output styled like a browser page — no upload required.
Which Markdown syntax is supported?
The viewer follows the CommonMark specification and supports headings (# through ######), bold (**text**), italic (*text*), lists (- and 1.), blockquotes (>), inline code (`code`), fenced code blocks (```), tables, links ([text](url)), and images (![alt](url)).
Is my content uploaded anywhere?
No. The viewer processes everything locally in your browser using JavaScript. Nothing is sent to a server, so even sensitive documents are safe to preview.
What is the difference between Markdown viewer and Markdown to HTML?
The Markdown viewer shows a rendered preview — styled text with formatting applied — so you can see exactly how the document will look. The Markdown to HTML tool outputs the raw HTML source code you can copy into a project.
Is the Markdown viewer free?
Yes. Every Handytool is free, with no accounts, sign-ups or usage limits.
