What does the Markdown Formatter fix?

It normalizes heading syntax (# Title instead of #Title), ensures exactly one blank line between blocks, fixes list item indentation consistency, and removes trailing whitespace from every line.

Will this tool change my content?

No. The formatter only changes whitespace and spacing — it never modifies the actual text content of headings, paragraphs, list items, or code blocks.

Does it handle code blocks?

Yes. Content inside fenced code blocks (``` or ~~~) is left untouched. The formatter only applies normalization rules to Markdown outside of code fences.

Paste Markdown text and this tool will normalize it: ensuring a single blank line between blocks, fixing heading spacing (so #Title becomes # Title), standardizing list indentation, and trimming trailing whitespace from every line. Great for cleaning up Markdown exported from editors or pasted from various sources.
