How it works

You write Markdown on the left, the preview renders on the right. Full GFM: headings, bold, italic, links, tables, task lists, code blocks. Raw HTML in your input gets escaped instead of rendered, so a pasted snippet can't run anything in the preview.

The interesting button is Copy as Rich Text. It puts two versions of your text on the clipboard at once: an HTML version and a plain-text version. Word, Google Docs, Gmail, and Notion read the HTML one and keep your formatting. A code editor reads the plain one and gets your original Markdown back. Same clipboard, right format for whatever you paste into.

Copy HTML gives you the raw markup for a CMS. Copy MD hands back the source.

When to use it

• Turning a Markdown draft into a formatted Word or Google Doc without rebuilding the formatting by hand.
• Pasting AI output (which is usually Markdown) into an email that should not look like AI output with asterisks in it.
• Checking how a README or blog draft actually renders before you commit it.

Why not just paste Markdown directly?

Because most apps treat Markdown as plain text. Paste **bold** into Gmail and you get literal asterisks. The conversion has to happen before the paste, and that's the whole job of this page. Everything runs locally in your browser. Your text never leaves the page.
