How to use

  1. Paste HTML on the left.
  2. Choose heading and bullet styles.
  3. Copy the Markdown.

How it works

Conversion uses Turndown, which walks the HTML document and writes Markdown for each element: headings, emphasis, lists, links, images and code blocks. Scripts, styles and iframes are removed. Elements without a Markdown equivalent (for example complex layouts) are reduced to their text content.

Examples

Blog migration
Paste an article's HTML from WordPress and get Markdown for a static site generator.

Common uses

  • Migrating blogs to static sites
  • Saving web content as notes
  • Preparing clean text for documentation

Frequently asked questions

Are tables converted?

Simple tables are kept as HTML inside the Markdown, which most renderers display correctly.

Can I paste a URL?

No — paste the HTML source. Fetching pages isn't done, for privacy and reliability.
