About HTML to Markdown Converter.

Convert HTML to Markdown and Back — With a Live Preview

Paste HTML and get clean, readable Markdown; paste Markdown and get valid HTML. Pick a direction and the converted code plus a rendered preview update as you type. Tables come across as real GitHub-flavored pipe tables, and links, headings, lists, code blocks, and blockquotes are preserved in both directions.

Because it runs entirely in your browser, nothing you paste is uploaded — which matters when the HTML or Markdown comes from internal docs, a client's CMS, or a private repo. There's no signup and no daily limit, and the HTML it produces is sanitized, so the same clean markup you preview is exactly what you copy and download.

Honest caveat: conversion is structural, not magical. Deeply nested tables, inline styles, and unusual HTML can flatten or simplify — the tool keeps the content and structure, not every visual nuance of the original markup.

  • Clean up pasted HTML: Turn messy WYSIWYG or CMS-export HTML into tidy Markdown for a README, wiki, or docs site.
  • Publish Markdown as HTML: Convert a Markdown draft into HTML you can drop into an email, a landing page, or a CMS field.
  • Move content between platforms: Migrate notes and articles between tools that speak Markdown and tools that expect HTML.
  • Preview before you ship: See exactly how the output renders so you catch a broken table or heading before publishing.
  • Round-trip and compare: Convert one way, hit Swap, and convert back to check what a platform will keep or drop.
  • Learn the syntax: Paste HTML you know and read the Markdown equivalent, or the reverse, to see how a tag maps to a mark.

Privacy: This runs entirely in your browser. The HTML or Markdown you paste is converted on your device and never uploaded, logged, or stored — nothing leaves your machine.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

How do I convert HTML to Markdown?

Choose HTML to Markdown and paste your HTML. Clean Markdown appears as you type, along with a rendered preview. Switch the direction to turn Markdown into HTML.

Are tables and links kept?

Will every style come across?

No. The conversion keeps content and structure. Inline styles, deeply nested tables and unusual HTML may be simplified.

Yes. It is free to use with no daily limit, no account and nothing to install. Nothing you paste is uploaded.
