# Complete Markdown Guide

What is Markdown?

Markdown is a lightweight markup language created by John Gruber in 2004 that allows you to write formatted text using plain text syntax [web:43][web:44]. It's designed to be easy to read and write, converting to HTML effortlessly for web publishing [web:45]. Markdown has become the standard for documentation, README files, blogs, forums, and content management systems. Unlike HTML which uses verbose tags, Markdown uses simple symbols like # for headings, * for emphasis, and [] for links. Markdown files use the .md or .markdown extension and are widely supported by platforms like GitHub, Reddit, Stack Overflow, Discord, and Slack [web:46][web:47].

What is a Markdown to HTML Converter?

A Markdown to HTML converter is a tool that transforms Markdown syntax into valid HTML code [web:43][web:44]. When you write content in Markdown, it needs to be converted to HTML for display in web browsers. Our converter uses the powerful Marked.js library [web:51], a fast and lightweight Markdown parser built specifically for speed and reliability. The converter supports standard Markdown syntax plus extended features like tables, task lists, strikethrough, and fenced code blocks with syntax highlighting [web:45][web:47]. This tool is essential for developers, technical writers, bloggers, and anyone creating web content who wants to write in simple Markdown but publish in HTML [web:46].
