Format description
Markdown files are text-based files that use lightweight symbols to define formatting (like # for headings or ** for bold).AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and others often output content in Markdown format - using bold text, bullet points, headings, and code blocks to structure their responses.
The Markdown format is frequently used by developers for README files, documentation, and note-taking. You can find Markdown files on platforms like GitHub, Stack Overflow, Reddit, and Discord, and personal knowledge bases like Obsidian and Notion.
MConverter's Markdown converter tool uses the CommonMark flavor, which offers more standardized markup rules.

HTML, short for HyperText Markup Language, is the foundation for all web pages and websites. HTML files contain the basic structure of a web page, but they can also contain references to other resources, such as CSS for styling and JavaScript for interactivity. HTML files can be viewed with browsers, which interpret the code and display it to the user.Common questions about converting Markdown to HTML
