Frequently Asked Questions
The editor supports headings, bold, italic, links, images, code blocks, inline code, tables, ordered and unordered lists, blockquotes, horizontal rules, and raw HTML embedding.
Yes. You can write inline HTML directly in your Markdown and it will be rendered in the preview. This is useful for custom styling or elements not covered by standard Markdown syntax.
No. All parsing and rendering happens entirely in your browser. Your content never leaves your device.
