This online editor allows you to load, save, and edit text files in the browser

BrowserPAD can also bidirectionally convert Markdown to/from HTML.

All of your text is kept locally on your own machine and does not get sent out to the Internet, making it impossible for anyone to get hold of it. Furthermore, cookies are not created nor read so your anonymity is secure.

This utility uses the marked javascript Markdown rendering engine: https://github.com/markedjs/marked (latest version is v12.0.1)

This utility uses the Turndown javascript HTML-to-Markdown rendering engine: https://github.com/mixmark-io/turndown (latest version is v7.1.3)
