What is a .md file?
Markdown is a plain-text writing format created by John Gruber in 2004, where a few punctuation marks stand in for formatting — asterisks for emphasis, hashes for headings. It's readable as-is and converts cleanly to HTML, which is why it became the default for documentation, readmes and most AI assistants' output.
What people use MD files for
- Readmes and project documentation
- Notes and drafts written in an editor like Obsidian or Notion
- Documentation destined for a static site generator
- Output from an AI assistant, which is almost always Markdown
- Changelogs and release notes
What opens a MD file
- Obsidian, Notion, Bear and most modern note apps
- VS Code and every developer editor
- GitHub and GitLab, which render it automatically
- Any text editor, since it's plain text
How to host a MD file

Pick an address
Type a name and we'll tell you straight away whether it's free. That becomes the link: documentation.99helpers.site
- 3
Publish and share
Create a free account — that step exists so the file is yours to update, replace or delete — and the link is live within seconds.
What happens when someone opens the link
The browser shows the Markdown source as text — the asterisks and hashes are visible rather than rendered as bold text and headings. To publish it as a formatted page, convert it to HTML first and host that.
Why host a MD file instead of emailing it?
Markdown is what an AI hands you when it writes a document, and it usually has nowhere to live: too formatted for a chat message, too plain to email. A link gives it an address in seconds, and republishing to the same address keeps it current as you edit.
Worth knowing before you publish
- For a formatted page rather than raw text, convert the Markdown to HTML — most editors export it, and the result hosts as a web page here.
- Images referenced by relative paths need to be uploaded alongside the file as a folder, not on their own.
- Save as UTF-8 so em dashes, quotes and emoji survive.
MD hosting questions
- Does Markdown render as a formatted page?
- No — it's served as plain text, so readers see the raw Markdown. To get a formatted page, export the Markdown to HTML in your editor and host that file instead; it'll render as a real web page.
- How do I share Markdown that an AI wrote for me?
- Save the response as a .md file and drop it here. If you want it to look like a finished page rather than source text, ask the AI for HTML instead and host that.
- Can I update it after publishing?
- Yes. Publish the edited file to the same address and the link keeps working with the new content.
