2. Conversion Process
Parsing Markdown
The tool uses JavaScript to parse Markdown into corresponding HTML tags. Here's how it handles various Markdown syntax:
- Headings: Markdown headings (e.g.,
# Heading 1
,## Heading 2
) are converted to<h1>
,<h2>
, etc. - Bold:
**Bold Text**
is converted to<strong>Bold Text</strong>
. - Italic:
*Italic Text*
is converted to<em>Italic Text</em>
. - Blockquotes:
> Blockquote
is converted to<blockquote>Blockquote</blockquote>
. - Lists:
- Unordered lists (
*
,-
,+
) are wrapped in<ul>
and<li>
tags. - Ordered lists (e.g.,
1. Item
) are converted into<ol>
and<li>
.
- Unordered lists (
- Links:
[Inline Link](https://example.com)
is converted to<a href="https://example.com">Inline Link</a>
.[Link with Title](https://example.com "Title")
adds thetitle
attribute to the<a>
tag.- Reference links like
[Reference Link][ref]
are resolved based on their definitions (e.g.,[ref]: https://example.com
).
- Images: Markdown images (
![Alt Text](https://example.com/image.jpg)
) are converted to<img>
tags withsrc
andalt
attributes. - Code:

\
code`) is wrapped in
`.

tags.
3. Adding Custom CSS
When the user provides custom CSS in the second text area, the tool wraps it inside a <style>
tag and appends it to the HTML output. This ensures that the custom styles are applied to the rendered HTML.
For example:
- If the user inputs
h1 { color: red; }
, the resulting HTML will display all<h1>
headings in red.
4. Rendering HTML Output
- The HTML generated from the Markdown is displayed in the right panel dynamically.
- If custom CSS is provided, it is injected into the HTML as a
<style>
block to modify the appearance.
5. Additional Features
Download HTML
- The "Download HTML" button allows users to save the generated HTML file.
- How it works: The tool creates a
Blob
object containing the HTML code and uses a<a>
element to trigger the download.

- How it works: It uses the
navigator.clipboard.writeText()
API to copy the content.
