Frequently Asked Questions
What Markdown syntax is supported?▼
This tool supports standard Markdown including headings (#), bold (**text**), italic (*text*), links ([text](url)), images (), ordered and unordered lists, blockquotes (>), code blocks (```), tables, horizontal rules (---), and task lists (- [x]). It follows the CommonMark specification.
Is the preview safe from XSS attacks?▼
Yes. The preview is sanitized using DOMPurify, which removes potentially dangerous HTML, JavaScript, and event handlers before rendering. This means you can safely preview Markdown from untrusted sources without risk of script injection or cross-site scripting attacks.
Can I use HTML inside my Markdown?▼
Basic HTML tags are allowed in Markdown and will be rendered in the preview. However, script tags, event handlers (onclick, etc.), and potentially dangerous elements are stripped by the sanitizer for security. Common tags like <br>, <sup>, <sub>, and <details> work fine.
