Why embed Markdown with one iframe

One <figure>, one iframe, one caption. That is all you need to embed Markdown — there is no SDK to keep up to date and nothing to configure on our side.

One iframe, fifteen tools

The same snippet works for the editor, the Mermaid and Markmap editors, and every converter. Swap the slug in the URL and you have swapped the tool — nothing else in your page changes.

Nothing leaves the browser

The embedded tool runs in your reader’s browser, the same as the hosted pages. No upload step, no document database.

Lazy by default

The snippet ships with loading="lazy" and a strict referrer policy, so an embed below the fold costs your page nothing until someone scrolls to it.

Plain HTML you can edit

No script tag, no bundle, no build step. A figure, an iframe and a caption — readable before you ship it and editable after.

Embed Markdown in three steps

  1. 1

    Pick a Markdown tool

    Choose what your readers need. The preview updates as you choose, so you see what lands on the page.

  2. 2

    Set the height

    Start with the recommended height for the selected tool, then choose compact or roomy. The live preview uses the exact height that goes into your embed code.

  3. 3

    Copy and paste

    Paste the HTML into your page, template, or docs generator. Anywhere that accepts raw HTML will render it.

Embed Markdown documents you already wrote

The generator above embeds a tool — your readers bring their own content. To embed something you have already written, open it in the workspace and use its Embed button instead.

Open the workspace

That route compresses the document and its theme into the embed URL itself. The page renders your exact content and nothing is stored on a server — which also means the link carries the whole document, so a very long file will not fit.

Embed Markdown FAQ

Anything missing? The contact page reaches a person.

Is embedding free?
Yes. There is no account, no API key, no request quota, and no paid tier for embedding. The default snippet includes a small "Powered by" credit, which is how the project stays visible enough to keep the tools free.
Do I have to keep the "Powered by" credit?
No. It is one line of the HTML you copy, so you can edit or delete it like any other markup. It is on by default because attribution is what makes a free, unlimited embed sustainable — but nothing inside the frame enforces it.
Does the embedded tool upload my readers’ files?
No. Conversion and rendering run in the visitor’s browser, exactly as they do on the hosted pages. Importing a document from a public URL is the one case that makes a network request, because the file has to be fetched.
Will it work in Notion, WordPress, or a docs site?
Anywhere that renders raw HTML or accepts an iframe URL will work — WordPress custom HTML blocks, Docusaurus and VitePress MDX, Ghost, Webflow, and most wikis. Platforms that strip iframes (and Notion’s /embed block, which takes a URL rather than HTML) can use the embed URL on its own.
Can I preload the embed with my own Markdown?
Yes, for the viewer. Open any document in the workspace and use its Embed button — it compresses the document into the URL itself, so the generated snippet renders that exact content without storing it anywhere.
Does the embed put ads on my page?
No. The advertising script is not loaded on embed routes at all, so no ad can appear inside the frame on your site. The embed pages are also marked noindex, so they never compete with your own page in search results.
