Markdown Live Preview

Side-by-side GitHub-flavored Markdown editor with HTML copy and print-to-PDF.

Privacy: 100% Client-Side. Your data never leaves this browser tab. Processing uses Web APIs and client-side libraries only.

Side-by-side GitHub-flavored Markdown (via marked). Supports tables, task lists, fenced code with syntax highlighting, KaTeX math ($ / $$), footnotes, and Pandoc-style definition lists. Mermaid is not included. Copy HTML or print to PDF locally.

Comprehensive Markdown Stress-Test Document

Designed for testing Markdown parsers, renderers, and reading tools.

1. Typography & Text Styling

This paragraph contains a mix of bold, italic, bold-italic, strikethrough, inline code, and a hyperlink example.

You can also use HTML tags for underline (underlined text) and sub/superscripts (H2O, X^2^), depending on parser support. Footnotes[1] are also a great test for advanced readers.


2. Blockquotes & Nesting

Primary blockquote layer. This tests standard quote rendering.

Nested blockquote layer. Ensuring multiple levels of indentation parse correctly.

Third-layer nesting with code inside: console.log("deep nesting");

Back to the first layer. A quote can contain lists:

  • Item one in a quote
  • Item two in a quote

3. List Variations

Ordered List

  1. First major item
  2. Second major item
    1. Sub-item A with a long description to test text wrapping behavior inside list items.
    2. Sub-item B
  3. Third major item

Unordered List

  • Bullet point item one
  • Bullet point item two
    • Nested bullet point
      • Deeply nested bullet point
  • Bullet point item three

Task List (Checklists)

  • Completed task item
  • Pending task item with edge-case characters: *, _, [ ]
  • Another pending task item

4. Data Tables

Syntax Description Test Status
Header Title Alignment Right
Bold Paragraph text Pass
code Inline snippets Pending
Pipe | Escaped character Warning

5. Code Highlighting & Blocks

JavaScript Example

// A complex snippet to test syntax highlighting
function fibonacci(n) {
    if (n <= 1) return n;
    return fibonacci(n - 1) + fibonacci(n - 2);
}

const result = fibonacci(10);
console.log(`Result: ${result}`);

Python Example

def quicksort(arr):
    if len(arr) <= 1:
        return arr
    pivot = arr[len(arr) // 2]
    left = [x for x in arr if x < pivot]
    middle = [x for x in arr if x == pivot]
    right = [x for x in arr if x > pivot]
    return quicksort(left) + middle + quicksort(right)

6. Mathematical Expressions

Inline Math: The quadratic formula is given by x=b±b24ac2ax = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}.

Display Math (Block):

0ex2dx=π2\int_{0}^{\infty} e^{-x^2} dx = \frac{\sqrt{\pi}}{2}

7. Advanced Elements

Definition List (If supported)

Term 1
Definition 1 for term 1.
Term 2
Definition 2 for term 2.

Footnotes

  1. This is the footnote definition at the bottom of the document to test reference links.

Why a client-side Markdown preview?

README drafts, docs, and LLM prompts benefit from instant formatting feedback without uploading content to a SaaS editor.

Utilxo renders GFM locally, lets you copy HTML, and opens a print dialog for PDF export.

How to use this tool

  1. Write Markdown in the left pane and watch the preview update.
  2. Copy raw HTML or use Export PDF to open the browser print dialog.

Frequently asked questions

Is Markdown uploaded?

No. Rendering uses marked.js entirely in your browser.

Why doesn’t the preview match GitHub / VS Code exactly?

Utilxo renders GFM plus extras: syntax highlighting (common languages), KaTeX math ($ / $$), GFM footnotes, and Pandoc-style definition lists. Mermaid diagrams are not included. Styling still won’t match GitHub or VS Code pixel-for-pixel.
