Very cool - I've run into the exact problem you described many times in the past and actually considered building something very similar to this.
As a side note, it looks like <img>'s aren't working - try adding something like this:

Hi, I've updated Devpen.io, and now it supports img tag, and html tag generally. You can try yourself there :)

This and generally other HTML tag codes aren't supported atm. Otherwise, it looks clean I like it :)

Neat and clean. Bookmarked, will give a try next time I write markdown for GitHub.
You are correct about the incompatible markdown styles on the Internet.
Imagine that you guys want to write documentation for your project by writing Markdown in Readme.md, to be published on GitHub later.
I'm an Android Dev, and I use a plugin to preview my Readme in Android Studio. And sometimes, I use other online Markdown editor, by doing live editing there. Problem solved, at least for now.
What I've found so far is that those solutions give me different style. And the problem usually arises after that. Sometimes, after updating the Readme.md file and push it to GitHub, there are some parts that are not suitable. Something like, H1 is too bigger for this section, or link is not shown well there, etc.
Devpen is an online tool to solve that problem.
