Quick Answer
What is a Markdown preview tool?
// Answer
It is a split-screen editor: you write Markdown on one side and see the rendered, formatted HTML on the other in real time. This lets you check formatting as you write README files, documentation, forum posts, or notes without publishing first.

See it as you write
Markdown is easy to write but hard to visualize in raw form. A live preview removes the guesswork. Everything runs in your browser, so your drafts stay private and there is nothing to install.
