HTML to Markdown Converter
HTML to Markdown conversion turns formatted web markup into the lightweight plain-text syntax used by README files, blogs, and documentation. Toolverge converts common tags — headings, paragraphs, bold/italic, links, images, ordered and unordered lists, code and pre blocks, and blockquotes — into their Markdown equivalents using a pure string-based converter, so the same result renders identically on the server and in the browser.
How it works
- Paste an HTML snippet into the input box.
- Common tags are converted to Markdown one block at a time: headings, lists, links, code, and more.
- The Markdown result updates instantly with no server call.
Frequently asked questions
Which HTML tags does the converter support?
Headings (h1–h6), paragraphs, links, bold/italic, ordered and unordered lists, code and pre blocks, blockquotes, images, and line breaks.
Does it work with a full HTML page?
It is built for HTML snippets/fragments, not a full document with <html> and <head> tags.
What happens to unsupported tags?
They are stripped from the output rather than shown as literal angle-bracket text.
Are HTML entities like & converted?
Yes. Common entities are decoded to their plain-text characters in the Markdown output.
Is there a Markdown to HTML converter too?
Yes — see the related Markdown to HTML tool for the reverse conversion.
