How to Use the HTML to Markdown Converter
Paste your raw HTML code directly into the input text area. We support headings, lists, tables, bold/italic text, and standard anchors.
Select your desired formatting rules, such as ATX or Setext style headings, custom bullet point markers, and code block styles.
Click "Convert to Markdown" to instantly parse your HTML structure. Use the copy button to grab the clean Markdown code.
Features & Formatting Capabilities
100% Privacy Preserved
All HTML parsing and Markdown generation happens securely within your browser. Your source code, articles, and sensitive data are never uploaded to remote servers.
GFM Support
Fully utilizes GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM) extensions through plugins, securely bridging the gap for complex elements like data tables and strikethroughs.
On-Demand Processing
Execute conversions manually by clicking the button. This prevents your browser from lagging when pasting extremely large HTML documents or complex nested elements.
Deep Customization
Control exactly how the engine translates elements. Customize list markers, prefer indented code blocks over fenced ones, and strictly dictate heading hierarchy styles.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why convert HTML to Markdown?
Markdown is significantly easier for humans to read, write, and maintain compared to raw HTML. Converting your site's articles to Markdown allows you to rapidly migrate content to static site generators (like Hugo or Next.js) or standard CMS platforms.
What happens to unsupported HTML tags?
Because Markdown is a subset of HTML, it doesn't support complex layout tags (like <div>, <span>, or inline styles). The Turndown engine will safely strip these out, leaving only the core semantic text formatting (bold, italic, links, lists).
Does this tool save or store my text?
No. Because this utility relies entirely on client-side JavaScript (via Turndown), your text remains stored solely in your device's active memory and is permanently erased the moment you close or refresh the tab.
