Transform complex HTML code into clean, readable Markdown in seconds. Perfect for documentation, blog migration, and developers.
HTML is the backbone of the web, but it isn't always the easiest format to read or edit. Markdown has become the industry standard for documentation, GitHub repositories, and modern static site generators. When you convert html to markdown text, you strip away the complex tags and attributes, leaving behind a clean, human-readable format that focuses on content rather than structure.
If you are migrating a blog from WordPress to a static site generator like Jekyll or Hugo, you likely have thousands of lines of HTML. Manually rewriting this would take weeks. Our tool automates this process, ensuring that your headings, links, and lists remain intact. Similarly, if you're using a text cleaner to process web-scraped data, converting it to Markdown first makes the data much easier to parse and store.
Our tool uses a sophisticated client-side parsing engine. It maps standard HTML elements like <h1> to #, <strong> to **, and <a> to [text](url). Because the conversion happens in your browser, your data never leaves your computer. This makes it a secure choice for developers handling sensitive code or private documentation.
For those working in reverse, we also offer a Markdown to HTML converter to help you turn your MD files back into web-ready code.
<div> and <span> tags that clutter your content.Whether you are a technical writer or a software engineer, having a reliable way to convert html to markdown text is essential. You can use our Markdown Previewer to check the output of your conversion in real-time, ensuring that every bold tag and image link was translated correctly. This tool is part of our suite of productivity utilities designed to make digital content management simpler and faster.
We support all common formatting tags including H1-H6, p, strong, em, a, img, ul, ol, li, blockquote, code, pre, hr, and br.
No, Markdown is a content-focused format. Inline styles, classes, and IDs are stripped away to provide you with clean, semantic Markdown text.
There is no hard limit, but very large files (several megabytes) might slow down your browser during the conversion process.
