How to use Markdown Previewer
Markdown Previewer — complete guide
Markdown is used everywhere from GitHub README files to documentation sites and note-taking apps, but it's easy to get small details wrong — like forgetting a blank line before a list, or mismatching asterisks for bold versus italic. A live preview catches these formatting mistakes immediately instead of after you've already published or committed the file.
This is especially useful for README files and technical documentation, where headings, code blocks, and links need to render exactly right before other people see them.
If you're writing JSON examples inside your documentation, JSON Formatter & Validator helps make sure those snippets are valid before you paste them in.
