Frequently asked questions
Is the HTML sanitized?
No — the raw rendered HTML is shown as-is so you can copy/paste into your CMS. If you're embedding untrusted input on a public site, run the output through a sanitizer like DOMPurify before injection.
Does it support GitHub task list checkboxes?
Yes — enable GFM and <code class="font-mono text-xs">- [x] done</code> renders as a checked checkbox.
