About Markdown Preview

The Markdown Preview provides a split-view editor with a Markdown input on the left and a live HTML preview on the right. It supports standard Markdown syntax including headings, bold, italic, lists, links, images, code blocks, blockquotes, and tables.

Developers use it to preview README files, API documentation, and changelogs before committing to Git. Writers and bloggers use it to format articles in Markdown and verify rendering before publishing to platforms like GitHub, GitLab, or static site generators.

All rendering happens locally in your browser. No text is transmitted to any server — safe for previewing confidential documentation, internal wikis, and proprietary technical content.
