Browser-native conversion

DOMParser reads pasted HTML on your device and a local walker writes Markdown. There is no upload endpoint or server-side parser.

Predictable Markdown

Common document nodes are converted explicitly, while unsafe or interactive nodes are ignored instead of guessed.

Safe analytics

Events use coarse buckets only. Pasted HTML, text content, URLs, generated Markdown and filenames are not sent.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my HTML uploaded to Convertr?

No. HTML to Markdown conversion runs entirely in your browser with JavaScript, so pasted HTML is not uploaded to Convertr servers.

What HTML is supported?

The converter handles common headings, paragraphs, emphasis, links, images, lists, blockquotes, code blocks, horizontal rules and basic tables.

Are scripts or styles included in Markdown output?

No. Script, style, iframe, object, embed and form nodes are ignored before Markdown is generated.

HTML to Markdown Converter

Turn pasted HTML into readable Markdown for documentation, support replies, and CMS exports.

Input
An HTML fragment plus conversion preferences.
Output
Markdown text with supported headings, lists, links, tables, and code.
Real limitations
Complex layouts, CSS, scripts, forms, and HTML without a Markdown equivalent are simplified or omitted.
Privacy and data handling
an HTML fragment plus conversion preferences is processed in this browser tab. Convertr does not receive or store it; closing or reloading the page clears the working state unless the tool explicitly offers a local download.

How to use this tool

  1. Provide an HTML fragment plus conversion preferences in the tool controls.
  2. Choose the settings that affect Markdown text with supported headings, lists, links, tables, and code, then run the tool.
  3. Review Markdown text with supported headings, lists, links, tables, and code before copying or downloading it.

Common failure modes

Malformed nesting, unsupported elements, or empty source can produce incomplete or empty Markdown.
