HTML to Markdown Converter

Convert HTML back into clean Markdown.

Copied to clipboard

This HTML to Markdown converter turns HTML markup into clean, readable Markdown — ideal for moving content out of a web page or CMS and into notes, documentation or a static-site blog.

How to use the converter

  1. Paste your HTML into the box.
  2. The Markdown equivalent appears instantly.
  3. Copy it into your notes app, docs or repo.

From markup to portable text

HTML is verbose and tied to the web; Markdown is compact, readable and works everywhere from GitHub to note apps. This tool strips the tags and rewrites common elements — headings, links, bold, italics, lists, blockquotes and code — into their Markdown equivalents, so your content becomes easy to store and edit as plain text.

A quick round-trip

Pair it with the Markdown to HTML converter when you need to go the other way. Converting HTML to Markdown to clean it up, then back to HTML, is a handy way to strip messy inline styles from pasted content.

Frequently asked questions

Will complex HTML convert perfectly?

Common elements convert cleanly. Very complex, deeply nested or heavily styled HTML may need minor manual tidying afterwards.

Does it keep links and images?

Yes. Links become [text](url) and images become ![alt](src) in Markdown.

Is my content uploaded?

No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser.
