FAQ

Common questions

Is this tool free?

Yes, completely free with no limits on usage. No account required, no watermarks, no hidden fees.

Is my data private?

Your Markdown never leaves your browser. All formatting happens locally on your device using remark.js. Nothing is uploaded to any server.

What does the formatter fix?

It normalizes inconsistent list markers (mixing -, *, +), fixes extra blank lines, standardizes emphasis style (*italic* vs _italic_), ensures consistent heading format, and cleans up trailing whitespace.

Does it support GitHub Flavored Markdown?

Yes. Tables, task lists, strikethrough, and autolinks are fully supported and preserved during formatting.

How does this compare to Prettier for Markdown?

This tool uses the same remark engine that powers Prettier's Markdown formatter. You get the same quality output directly in your browser without installing anything. For local formatting on Mac, try MacMD Viewer.
