Which Markdown features are converted?

Headings, bold, italic, inline code, fenced code blocks, ordered and unordered lists (with nesting), links, blockquotes, strikethrough and horizontal rules are all mapped to their Jira wiki markup equivalents.

How are code blocks handled?

Fenced code blocks become Jira {code} blocks, and a language hint like ```js becomes {code:js} so syntax highlighting works in Jira.

Is anything uploaded?

No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser — your text never leaves your device.

Markdown to Jira — Gera Tools

Convert Markdown to Jira wiki markup

Jira’s classic editor uses wiki markup, not Markdown — so pasting a README or PR description straight in leaves you with broken # headings and **stars**. This tool maps Markdown to the right Jira syntax: # Heading becomes h1., **bold** becomes *bold*, `code` becomes {{code}}, fenced blocks become {code}, and [text](url) becomes [text|url].

Lists (including nesting), blockquotes, strikethrough and rules are converted too. Everything happens in your browser — nothing is uploaded.
