About Markdown Free

A fast, free, web-based Markdown viewer and converter with an ultra-simple flow.

What is Markdown Free?

Markdown Free lets you upload a .md file, preview it instantly with beautiful formatting, then export to PDF, TXT, or HTML with a single click. No signup required, no complex interfaces—just drag, drop, and download.

Why we built this

We noticed that many people receive Markdown files but don't have an easy way to view or convert them. Existing tools often require sign-ups, have complex interfaces, or raise privacy concerns.

Markdown Free solves this with a single-purpose tool that anyone can understand in under 3 seconds and complete their task in under 30 seconds.

Our principles

• Free forever — No accounts, no subscriptions, no hidden costs
• Privacy first — Files are processed temporarily and never stored on our servers
• Simple by design — One page, three buttons, done
• Open and transparent — What you see is what you get

How it works

1. Upload — Drag & drop your .md, .markdown, or .txt file
2. Preview — See your formatted Markdown instantly
3. Export — Click To PDF, To TXT, or To HTML to download

Technical details

• Preview & HTML/TXT export: Processed entirely in your browser using modern web technologies
• PDF export: Generated server-side for high fidelity, then immediately discarded
• File size limit: Up to 5 MB per file
• Supported formats: GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM) including tables, task lists, and strikethrough
