Which Markdown features are supported?
Headings, bold, italic, links, images, lists, quotes, code blocks, tables and horizontal rules, following the common GitHub-flavored Markdown rules.
Is it safe to paste untrusted Markdown?
Yes. The preview is sanitized, so scripts and unsafe HTML are removed before anything is shown.
Can I copy the HTML?

Is my text saved or uploaded?
No. Everything happens in your browser, and the text is gone when you close or refresh the page.
