Markdown is a lightweight text formatting syntax that converts simple symbols, like # for headings or ** for bold text, into formatted HTML. It's widely used in README files, documentation, forum posts, and note-taking apps because it's readable even in its raw, unformatted form.
# creates a heading, ** or __ around text makes it bold, * or _ makes it italic, - or * at the start of a line creates a bullet list, and [text](url) creates a hyperlink.
Typing '## Release Notes\n\nThis version fixes a **critical** bug and adds *minor* polish.\n\n- Fixed login crash\n- Improved load time' renders as a medium heading reading 'Release Notes', followed by a paragraph where 'critical' appears bold and 'minor' appears italic, followed by a two-item bullet list. Note the blank line between the heading and the paragraph, without it many Markdown parsers merge the heading and the following text into one line instead of treating them as separate blocks.
Forgetting the blank line between a heading (or paragraph) and the block that follows it, without it, some parsers won't treat them as separate elements and the formatting won't render as expected.
Using a single asterisk or underscore for bold text, *text* or _text_ produces italics, you need double characters, **text** or __text__, for bold.
Writing a bullet list immediately after a paragraph with no blank line in between, the list may get absorbed into the paragraph text instead of rendering as a separate bulleted list.
No, all rendering happens directly in your browser, nothing you type is sent to or stored on any server.
This uses standard Markdown syntax (the CommonMark-based 'marked' parser), covering headings, lists, links, bold/italic text, code blocks and more.
