Markdown Live Editor — Free Online Editor with Instant Preview

This free Markdown editor lets you write Markdown and see it rendered as HTML in real-time — entirely in your browser with zero uploads. Supports headings, bold, italic, strikethrough, links, images, code blocks, blockquotes, tables, task lists, and horizontal rules. Features a formatting toolbar, keyboard shortcuts, word/character count, export to HTML/MD/PDF, localStorage auto-save, and sync scroll. No ads, no tracking — one of 60+ tools at jasperbernaers.com.

Is my content private?

Yes. Everything runs 100% in your browser. Your Markdown is never sent to any server. Content is auto-saved to localStorage so it persists between sessions on the same device.

What Markdown syntax is supported?

All common Markdown: headings (# to ######), bold (**text**), italic (*text*), strikethrough (~~text~~), links [text](url), images ![alt](url), inline code (`code`), fenced code blocks (```), blockquotes (>), ordered/unordered lists, task lists (- [ ] / - [x]), tables (pipe syntax), and horizontal rules (---).

What are the keyboard shortcuts?

Ctrl+B — Bold, Ctrl+I — Italic, Ctrl+K — Insert link, Ctrl+S — Save as .md file. On Mac, use Cmd instead of Ctrl.

How do I export my work?

Four export options: Copy HTML copies the rendered HTML to your clipboard. Download .html saves a complete HTML file. Download .md saves the raw Markdown. Print / PDF opens your browser's print dialog so you can save as PDF.

Does it save my work automatically?

Yes. Your Markdown is auto-saved to your browser's localStorage as you type. When you reopen the page, your content is restored automatically. Clear it with the "Clear editor" button.

Is this completely free?

Completely free — no account, no subscription, no watermark, no ads, no usage limits. One of 60+ free browser-based tools at jasperbernaers.com.
