See more Markdown Examples

Demonstrates how to convert a complete Markdown document to HTML using no specified theme. This is the default when the JSON options is empty. Unlike the raw theme, the default produces a full HTML document including:

  • Document Type Declaration (e.g. <!DOCTYPE html>)
  • Root Element (e.g., <html> )
  • Head Section
  • Enclosing <body> and </body> elements
  • Closing </html> element
