Convert Markdown to HTML

Turn a Markdown file into a ready-to-open web page or into an HTML fragment you can paste into your own site. The conversion runs in your browser, so your text is not uploaded.

Features

  • Complete page or fragment

    Create a standalone HTML page with a title, responsive layout and readable styling, or only the content for your own template.

  • Everyday Markdown and GitHub extras

    Headings, emphasis, links, images, lists, nested lists, quotes, code blocks and spans, horizontal rules, tables with alignment, task lists and strikethrough.

  • Headings with anchors

    Every heading gets an id, including headings in Bengali and other scripts, so links such as #installation can jump to it.

  • Safe output

    Raw HTML in the Markdown is shown as text instead of being executed, and links with schemes such as javascript: are dropped.

  • Many files at once

    Convert up to 20 Markdown or text files in one run and download the HTML files separately or as a ZIP.

How to use Markdown to HTML

  1. Choose Markdown files, or drop them onto the page.
  2. Choose a complete web page or an HTML fragment.
  3. Select Convert to HTML.
  4. Download the HTML files, or all of them as a ZIP.

Supported formats

AcceptsMarkdown (.md), Text (.txt)
ProducesHTML

Files are read as UTF-8, with Windows-1252 as a fallback.

Limits and things to know

  • This is a compact converter that covers common Markdown and GitHub-style tables, task lists and strikethrough. Footnotes, definition lists, math and diagrams are not supported.
  • Raw HTML inside the Markdown is not passed through. It is displayed as text.
  • Images and links point to the same addresses as in the Markdown. Remote images load from their own servers when someone opens the page.
  • Up to 20 files, 10 MB each and 50 MB in total. Very deep nesting is shown as plain text.
  • Syntax highlighting is not added to code blocks. The language is kept as a class name for your own highlighter.

Privacy and processing

The Markdown is read and converted by your browser in a Web Worker. Nothing is sent to FilesKit, which has no server that receives your files.

Common uses

  • Publish a README or notes

    Turn a README, a changelog or class notes into a page you can open in a browser or share as one file.

  • Prepare content for a website

    Convert Markdown to an HTML fragment and paste it into a CMS, a template or an email.

  • Make a printable document

    Open the generated page and print it or save it as PDF with your browser.

  • Check how Markdown renders

    See what your headings, tables and lists turn into before you publish.

How this differs from other approaches

Online Markdown converters upload your text to a server, which matters for private notes and drafts. FilesKit converts on your device. Tools such as Pandoc support the full range of Markdown flavours and many output formats if you need more.

Frequently asked questions

Is my Markdown uploaded?

No. The conversion runs in your browser and FilesKit has no server that receives your files.

Does it support tables and task lists?

Yes. GitHub-style tables with column alignment, task lists such as - [x] done, and ~~strikethrough~~ are supported.

Why is my HTML tag shown as text?

For safety, raw HTML in the Markdown is not passed through. It is escaped and displayed as text, so a converted file cannot run unexpected code.

Can I get only the body without the page wrapper?

Yes. Choose the HTML fragment option to get just the converted content, ready to paste into your own page.

Does it work with Bengali text?

Yes. Text is read and written as UTF-8, headings in Bengali get working anchors, and the page styling includes fonts that display Bengali.
