How to use
- Paste the HTML of the page or section, or load the example.
- Choose heading style, list marker and code block style.
- Switch links or images off if you want text only.
- Check the counts of headings, links, images and tables, then copy the Markdown.
What it checks and how it works
The HTML is converted with Turndown, which walks the page's elements and writes the matching CommonMark syntax. Tables, which Turndown leaves out on its own, are written as GitHub Flavored Markdown pipe tables, and strikethrough is kept. Scripts, styles and templates are removed before conversion.
Markdown cannot express everything in HTML: classes, inline styles, merged table cells and nested tables are lost, and the top table row is treated as the header. Check the result before you publish it.
