What is it

This converter helps move HTML copied from web pages or a CMS into Markdown for docs, wikis, and README files. Standard elements — headings (h1–h6), bold and italic, links, images, lists, blockquotes, and code blocks — convert to CommonMark-style syntax, while elements without a Markdown equivalent (complex tables, inline styles) may be simplified or kept as raw HTML. Conversion runs entirely in the browser.

Markdown = Turndown(HTML) — e.g. <h1> → #, <strong> → **, <a> → [text](URL)

How to use

1Paste the HTML you want to convert.
2Press convert.
3Review the Markdown, then copy it or download it as an .md file.

FAQ

Is my HTML sent to a server?

No. Conversion is handled by the Turndown library loaded in your browser; the input never leaves your device.

Does every HTML element convert losslessly?

No. Standard elements with Markdown equivalents convert cleanly, but complex tables, nested layouts, and inline styles may be simplified or preserved as raw HTML.
