Preview
Paste markdown to preview.
Client-side only. Raw HTML is shown as text. This is not a CMS, file store, or GitHub editor. Markdown is not sent to a server.
How to use
- Paste markdown in the box on the left (or above, on a narrow screen).
- Read the preview. Headings, bold, lists, and code are Preact elements with text children. Raw HTML stays text.
- Nothing is sent to a server. This is not a CMS, file store, or GitHub editor. Refreshing the page clears the form.
Runs in your browser. Nothing is uploaded.
Frequently asked questions
Which markdown subset does this editor preview?
A small CommonMark-ish subset: ATX headings # through ######, paragraphs, **bold** and *italic* or _italic_, inline code, fenced and indented code blocks, unordered and ordered lists, and blockquotes. Links are included only when the href is http or https. Images are shown as alt text only. This is not a full CommonMark or GFM parser.
How is raw HTML in markdown handled?
Raw HTML is shown as text. Script tags, image tags, and other markup stay as characters in a text node. They are not turned into HTML elements and are not executed.
Does this page use innerHTML to render the preview?
No. Markdown is parsed to an AST in this page's own module, then rendered as Preact elements whose text is text children only. There is no innerHTML of pasted markdown and no HTML-injection markdown library.
Is this client-side? Do I need an account?
Yes, it is client-side only. There is no signup. Markdown never leaves the browser. Tallymill does not save what you paste. Refreshing the page clears the form.
Is this a GitHub editor, CMS, or file store?
No. This page previews markdown in the browser. It is not a GitHub editor, not a CMS, and not a file store. There is no save, no fetch of user markdown, and no repository integration.
Is there a size limit?
Yes. Input larger than 100KB (100 × 1024 UTF-8 bytes) is rejected. Empty and whitespace-only input also fail closed. Nothing is sent to a server either way.
