FAQ
Does this tool upload my text anywhere?
No. The generator runs locally in your browser and makes no network requests.
What is a Markdown (.md) file?
It’s a plain-text file that uses simple formatting like # headings and - lists, commonly used for READMEs and docs.
Can I generate YAML front matter for static site generators?
Yes—enable YAML front matter and fill in fields like title and description.
How is the table of contents created?
It scans your content for Markdown headings (# through ######) and builds links, skipping fenced code blocks.
What happens if two headings have the same text?
The tool auto-disambiguates anchors (for example #same and #same-1) so TOC links stay unique.
How does the filename work?
If you leave it blank, the tool creates a safe filename from the title and adds .md.
Why normalize newlines?
It converts mixed Windows/Mac line endings into consistent \n, reducing formatting glitches across editors.
