About this tool
Migrating content from old websites or rich-text editors into Markdown (used by GitHub, Notion, and modern CMS platforms) is tedious to do by hand. This tool parses raw HTML using a custom recursive DOM algorithm and instantly translates it into clean, formatted Markdown syntax. It handles headings, paragraphs, bold, italics, lists, links, images, and code blocks perfectly. Everything runs locally in your browser.

Frequently asked questions
Does it support HTML tables?
Currently, the parser focuses on structural text elements (headings, lists, paragraphs, inline formatting). Complex HTML tables are stripped of their tags and output as plain text.
Is my HTML data sent to a server?
No. The parsing is done entirely in your browser using the native DOMParser API. Your data is completely private.
How does it handle nested lists?
The custom recursive algorithm walks through the DOM tree, so nested <ul> and <ol> tags are correctly indented with spaces in the Markdown output.
Private and free. Most of our tools run entirely in your browser, so the data you enter isn't uploaded or stored. There's no sign-up, and there never will be — they're built by the Fusion Trail Solutions team to be genuinely useful.
