HTML tables and Markdown tables describe the same grid in very different syntax, and rebuilding one as the other by hand is miserable: every <tr> and <td> becomes a pipe and a dash you have to line up yourself. Paste the table’s HTML here and the conversion is instant — this is the exact html table to markdown task people hit when moving a spec, a price grid, or a comparison table out of a web page and into a README, a wiki, or a docs site. The converter reads the <thead> and <tbody>, turns the header cells into the Markdown header row with its separator line, and lays the body rows out as aligned pipe columns. It runs in your browser, so the markup never leaves your machine, and it handles the rest of the document too if you paste more than just the table.
Paste your HTML — just the <table> element, or the whole page if that is easier — into the box above.
The right pane shows the GitHub-flavored Markdown table: a header row, the --- separator, and one pipe-delimited row per record.
Copy the Markdown table into your README, wiki or docs — or publish the whole thing on dochost as a shareable page.
A technical writer is porting an API reference from an old HTML help site into a Markdown docs repo. The endpoint page has a parameters table — name, type, required, description — marked up as a full HTML <table> with a header row and twelve body rows. Retyping that as a Markdown pipe table, getting every separator and alignment right, would be ten minutes of fiddly work per endpoint across dozens of endpoints. Instead they copy the <table> markup from the page source and paste it here. The Markdown table appears with the four column headers, the separator row, and all twelve rows aligned — no hand-typed pipes. They paste it straight into the endpoint’s .md file, where it renders as a clean table on the docs site, and move to the next endpoint. A day of table-retyping collapses into copy, paste, copy.
Yes. The cells in the table’s <thead> (or the first row) become the Markdown header, followed by the --- separator line that GitHub and most renderers require for a table to display.
Markdown tables are a simple grid and cannot represent merged (colspan/rowspan) or nested cells. Those collapse to plain cells in the output — for most data tables that is fine; for a complex layout you may need a light manual cleanup.
Yes. Paste the full HTML and everything converts — headings, lists, links and any tables all become Markdown together. If you only want the table, paste just the <table> element.
No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser, so the HTML you paste — table data included — never leaves your machine and nothing is stored.
