Markdown to HTML Converter (with Live Preview)
Type Markdown and it's converted to HTML with a live preview as you type. Copy the generated HTML source directly, or switch direction to paste HTML and convert it back to Markdown. Handy for checking a GitHub README or a blog draft before publishing. To count the characters in your result, try theCharacter Counteras well.
Note: the preview is sanitized for safety, so some elements like <script>tags are not rendered.
