Markdown and HTML explained

Markdown is plain text with lightweight conventions — hashes for headings, asterisks for emphasis — that stays readable as written while converting cleanly to HTML.

HTML is the markup language of the web, describing document structure — headings, paragraphs, lists, links — which browsers then render.

Where Markdown files come from
READMEs, documentation sites, notes apps and static blogs.
Where HTML is used
Web pages, email templates and exports from documentation tools.

Markdown vs HTML

The two formats solve different problems, which is why converting between them involves trade-offs rather than a straight upgrade.

Why convert Markdown to HTML?

People make this switch when they run into the limits of Markdown: precise layout is required. HTML is the better fit when publishing on the web or generating documents programmatically.

Markdown limitations that prompt the switch
Dialects differ, so tables and footnotes are inconsistent. Limited layout control. Not a final deliverable format.
What you give up
Layout depends on the renderer and available fonts. Not a fixed-layout format.

What is preserved when converting Markdown to HTML?

Both formats store the content without discarding data, so this conversion preserves it exactly. The file size may change because the two formats compress differently, but the content itself is unaffected.
