Frequently asked questions

What is Markdown checklist generator?

Turn a list of lines into a Markdown task list (- [ ] item).

When would I actually use this?

Filling a layout before the copy exists, giving a bio or a headline a distinct look, and grabbing a symbol that is not on the keyboard.

What is the most common mistake?

Using styled Unicode letters where they have to be read by a machine. Screen readers announce them as individual symbols or skip them, and search engines do not treat them as the letters they resemble.

What else is filed next to it?

Markdown blockquote generator, Strip Markdown and Acronym generator share its section. They are not variants of it — being filed together is not the same as being alike — but that is where to look if this turned out not to be the tool you wanted.

Where do the figures come from?

Styled characters come from the Unicode mathematical alphanumeric blocks, which is why they paste anywhere but are not a font. Placeholder text is generated locally and means nothing in any language.

GuideMarkdown Task Lists and What Actually Renders WhereTask lists are not in CommonMark. They are a GitHub Flavored Markdown extension, which is why the same file shows checkboxes in one place and literal brackets in another. The exact marker rule, what nesting does, and a table of what is CommonMark, what is GFM and what is neither — checked against both specs and four renderers.How-toBuilding a Markdown Table From Scratch, Without Counting Dashes by HandThe smallest thing that is still a table is two lines: a header row and a delimiter row. Here is why the second one is mandatory in GitHub Flavored Markdown, where pipe tables do not exist at all, and what a generator does that hand-typing cannot.GuideStripping Markdown: What Plain Text Loses, and What a Regex Gets WrongA link becomes text with its destination deleted, a nested list loses its hierarchy, a table becomes a row of words. Then the technical half: markdown has no single spec, and a regex stripper mangles a filename, a multiplication sign and the inside of a code block — all shown against a real parser.ExplainerHow Instagram Fonts Actually Work (They Are Not Fonts)Nothing is styled. Each letter is swapped for a different Unicode character that happens to look bold or cursive — which is why a screen reader reads the result as gibberish and some devices show empty boxes.ExplainerThe Fake Fonts in Your Bio Are Not Fonts: What Those Characters Really AreA bold-looking 𝐀 is not the letter A in a bold font — it is U+1D400, a separate character invented for mathematics. We printed the code points, measured what it costs in bytes, broke search, sorting and word counts with it, and scanned the block to find its 28 holes.ExplainerDetecting the Language of a Text, and Why Short Texts FailMeasured, not asserted: 90 short real phrases across six languages, none declined and 68 right — 76%, falling to 64% under sixteen letters. Four of the wrong answers came back at 100% confidence.
