Jira Markup (also known as Confluence Wiki Markup) is a lightweight markup language used in Atlassian products like Jira and Confluence. It allows users to format text, create tables, add code blocks, and embed macros using simple text-based syntax without needing HTML knowledge. It was the primary formatting method before the WYSIWYG editor was introduced.

Use h1. through h6. at the beginning of a line, followed by a space and your heading text. For example:
h1. Main Title → <h1>Main Title</h1>
h2. Section Title → <h2>Section Title</h2>
h3. Subsection → <h3>Subsection</h3>

Bold: *text* → <strong>
Italic: _text_ → <em>
Strikethrough: -text- → <del>
Underline: +text+ → <u>
Monospace: {{text}} → <code>
Superscript: ^text^ → <sup>
Subscript: ~text~ → <sub>
Color: {color:red}text{color} → <span style="color:red">

Code blocks use {code}...{code} syntax. You can optionally specify a language: {code:javascript}. The converter wraps code in <pre><code> tags and escapes HTML entities inside. For plain preformatted text without syntax highlighting intent, use {noformat}...{noformat}.

Table headers use double pipes: ||Header 1||Header 2||
Table rows use single pipes: |Cell 1|Cell 2|
Each table row must be on its own line. The converter automatically wraps consecutive table rows in <table> tags with proper <thead> and <tbody> sections.

Yes! The converter supports common Confluence macros including:
• {panel:title=Title}...{panel} → styled panel div
• {info}...{info} → info alert box
• {note}...{note} → note alert box
• {warning}...{warning} → warning alert box
• {tip}...{tip} → tip alert box
• {quote}...{quote} → blockquote

Absolutely. When migrating from Confluence Server/Data Center to Confluence Cloud, Wiki Markup pages may need conversion to proper HTML. This tool helps you preview and convert your legacy markup. Note that Confluence Cloud primarily uses the new editor format, but converted HTML can be imported or used in custom integrations.

100% client-side. All conversion happens directly in your browser using JavaScript. Your Jira Markup content never leaves your device, is never sent to any server, and is not stored anywhere. You can verify this by disconnecting your internet after the page loads — the converter will continue to work perfectly.
