In-depth guide
Markdown is the lingua franca of READMEs, docs and notes — readable as plain text, renderable as HTML. This tool converts common HTML into clean Markdown so you can move content from a web page or CMS into a docs workflow, entirely in your browser.
The conversion is best for semantic content: headings become # lines, paragraphs become blank-line-separated text, links become [text](url), and lists, emphasis and code blocks map to their Markdown equivalents. This covers the vast majority of article and documentation HTML.
Markdown deliberately has no syntax for complex layout, so things like multi-column tables with merged cells, custom styling, or deeply nested HTML will be simplified or fall back to inline HTML. For purely presentational markup, expect to clean up the output; for structured prose, it is usually paste-ready.
The HTML is parsed and converted locally in your browser — nothing is uploaded, and no scripts in the pasted markup are executed. The output is plain Markdown text you can safely review before publishing.
Use this tool for quick browser-based work when you need an answer or output immediately. Use a dedicated application or automated workflow when you need bulk processing, approvals, or repeatable production rules.
Headings, paragraphs, links, lists, emphasis and code blocks are converted in this release — the common semantic content tags.
It parses the input locally and converts it to Markdown text without executing any scripts contained in the markup.
No. Complex layouts and presentational markup may lose fidelity. The tool focuses on producing clean, readable Markdown.
Markdown has limited syntax for complex tables and none for arbitrary styling, so those parts may be simplified or fall back to inline HTML.
Yes. Nothing is uploaded — the HTML is parsed and converted entirely on your device.
Yes, especially for nested or unusual HTML. For straightforward articles the Markdown is usually paste-ready.
