What is HTML to Markdown Conversion?

HTML to Markdown conversion transforms HTML markup into the lighter, more readable Markdown syntax. This is useful when migrating content from a CMS to a static site generator, preparing text for GitHub README files, or simplifying HTML for documentation tools like Notion or Confluence. Markdown is far easier to read and edit by hand than raw HTML. This tool uses the Turndown library to handle headings, paragraphs, bold, italic, links, images, lists, tables, blockquotes, and code blocks — all configurable to match your preferred Markdown flavour.

How to Use the HTML to Markdown Converter

Paste your HTML into the left panel — Markdown appears in the right panel automatically.
Choose heading style: ATX uses # symbols, Setext uses underlines for h1/h2.
Set the bullet character (-, *, or +) and code block style (fenced ``` or indented 4 spaces).
Choose inline links text or reference-style links if you prefer a cleaner document body.
Click Copy Markdown to copy the output, or click Example to see a full conversion demo.
