HTML to Markdown Converter
What is HTML to Markdown Converter
HTML to Markdown Converter transforms HTML markup into Markdown entirely in your browser. It is the reverse of a Markdown to HTML converter: paste HTML copied from a web page, an exported document or an email, and get back lightweight Markdown you can drop into a README, a static site generator, a wiki or a note-taking app.
How to use
- Paste your HTML into the input field on the left.
- Review the Markdown output on the right as it updates automatically.
- Adjust the source HTML if the result needs tweaking.
- Click Copy to copy the Markdown to your clipboard.
When to use it
Copied a formatted section from a web page and need it as clean Markdown for a wiki page or a GitHub issue? Paste the HTML in and headings, bold text, links, lists and code blocks come out as proper Markdown syntax, ready to paste without stripping tags by hand.
Frequently asked questions
What HTML tags does this tool support?
Headings (h1 through h6), paragraphs, strong/b, em/i, inline code, fenced code blocks (pre/code), links, images, ordered and unordered lists, blockquotes, line breaks and horizontal rules. Unrecognized tags are stripped while their text content is kept.
Does this tool send my HTML to a server?
No. All conversion happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your markup is never uploaded anywhere.
Will the output match the original formatting exactly?
For the supported tags, yes. Markdown is a simpler format than HTML, so complex layouts (tables, custom styling, nested structures) are flattened to their plain text content rather than preserved pixel for pixel.
Can I share this tool with my inputs pre-filled?
Yes. The URL updates automatically as you type. Copy it from the address bar or use the Share button, anyone who opens the link will see your exact inputs ready to go.
