Step-by-Step Guide

1

Paste your HTML

Copy HTML from any source — web pages, rich text editors, email templates, or raw HTML files — and paste it into the input area.

2

Convert instantly

The Markdown output appears in real-time. HTML headings become # syntax, links become [text](url), images become ![alt](src), and lists convert to - or 1. format.

3

Review the output

Check the Markdown preview to verify formatting. Tables, code blocks, bold/italic text, and nested lists are all handled correctly.

4

Copy your Markdown

Copy the clean Markdown for use in GitHub READMEs, documentation, blog posts, or any Markdown-compatible platform. No cleanup needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which HTML tags are supported?
All common tags: headings (h1-h6), paragraphs, links, images, lists (ordered and unordered), tables, code blocks, blockquotes, bold, italic, strikethrough, and horizontal rules.
What about complex HTML with classes and styles?
The converter strips classes, IDs, and inline styles, keeping only the semantic content. This produces clean, readable Markdown without presentation markup.
Can I convert a full web page?
Yes. Paste the full HTML and the tool extracts the content, ignoring scripts, styles, and non-content elements. For best results, paste just the body content or article HTML.
