About HTML to Markdown
This tool turns an HTML document into clean Markdown using turndown with GitHub-Flavored Markdown extensions — headings, lists, links, images, tables, and fenced code blocks all convert to Markdown syntax. Scripts, styles, and layout wrappers are discarded so you keep the content, not the chrome. Everything runs locally in your browser: the HTML is parsed on your own device and the Markdown file is offered for download. Nothing is uploaded, stored, or sent to a server.
Convert HTML without uploading — your file never leaves your device
Unlike most online converters, this tool runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your HTML is never uploaded to a server, never stored, and never leaves your device — so pages, drafts, and documents stay private.
Frequently asked questions
- Does this upload my file?
- No. Conversion runs entirely in your browser with JavaScript — your HTML is never sent to a server and never leaves your device. You can verify it: open your browser's developer tools, switch to the Network tab, and convert — you'll see no upload request.
- What converts to Markdown?
- Headings, paragraphs, bold and italic, links, images, blockquotes, ordered and unordered lists, tables, and code blocks all convert to GitHub-Flavored Markdown. Scripts, inline styles, and structural wrappers are dropped.
- Is there a size limit?
- Yes — and it's a real one. Converting very large HTML is slow, so there's a firm character limit; if your input is over it you'll get a clear message immediately (nothing hangs). For typical pages and documents you'll never reach it.
- What do I get back?
- A .md Markdown file you can open in any editor, commit to a repo, or paste into a Markdown tool. Download is a one-click save from your device.
- Do I need an account?
- No. The tool is free to use with no signup.
