HTML to Markdown Converter
Convert HTML to clean Markdown instantly. Handles headings, links, images, lists, tables, code blocks, and inline formatting. Download as .md file.
How to Convert HTML to Markdown
Paste your HTML into the input panel and the converter produces clean Markdown output in real time. The tool maps HTML tags to their Markdown equivalents: <h1> becomes #,<strong> becomes **bold**, <a> becomes [text](url), and so on. Need the reverse direction? Use our Markdown to HTML Converter. Copy the Markdown or download it as a .md file.
Supported HTML Tags
The converter handles headings (h1-h6), paragraphs, bold, italic, strikethrough, links, images, ordered and unordered lists, blockquotes, code blocks, inline code, horizontal rules, and tables. Nested lists and complex table structures are preserved. Unsupported tags are stripped, keeping only the text content. Encode special characters with our HTML Entity Encoder.
Common Use Cases
Migrate blog content from CMS platforms (WordPress, Ghost) to Markdown-based systems (Hugo, Gatsby, Astro). Convert rich text emails to Markdown for documentation. Transform web-scraped HTML into readable Markdown notes. Check your content length with our Word Counter. All conversion happens in your browser — your content never leaves your device.
