Guide

When you need HTML as Markdown

Markdown is the format of GitHub, most documentation sites, Notion imports, Ghost, many headless CMSs, and AI tools. Converting HTML by hand is slow; this does it instantly and drops scripts, styles and layout markup that Markdown can't represent.

The output uses # headings, - lists, **bold**, *italics*, [links](url) and GitHub-style tables, which nearly every Markdown editor understands.

Tips

Tips for using the HTML to Markdown converter

Clean up after pasting from Word

Copy from Word or Google Docs into an HTML editor first, then convert. The converter drops styling Markdown can't hold.

Check tables

Complex tables with merged cells can't be represented in Markdown; simplify them before converting.

Keep links absolute

Relative links (/page) stay relative. Make them full URLs if the Markdown will be used on another site.

Convert back any time

Is my HTML uploaded?

No. It's converted in your browser.

Does it keep images?

Yes, as ![alt text](url) with the original image URLs.
