Tables, made portable

Convert a table to Markdown without rebuilding it

Markdown tables are useful when data belongs in a README, pull request, wiki, or technical note. Paste a table from the tool you already use, clean up a cell or two, and copy Markdown that stays readable even outside a spreadsheet.

Table in Markdown: a quick workflow

  1. Type into the grid, or paste cells from Word, Excel, Google Sheets, or a webpage into the first cell.
  2. Keep the first row as a header when it names each column, then choose the alignment you need.
  3. Review the Markdown output or Preview, then copy it into your document or download an .md file.

Tab-separated spreadsheet cells become rows and columns automatically, so a copy-and-paste job does not have to become a manual rewrite.

Markdown table syntax is simple by design

A Markdown table uses pipes between cells and a separator row below the header. Colons in that separator control left, center, or right alignment. The converter writes GitHub Flavored Markdown syntax and escapes pipes inside a cell so the table keeps its intended columns.

Markdown tables are best for compact, rectangular data. They do not support merged cells, complex visual styling, or every spreadsheet behavior, which is why a quick preview is useful before publishing.

A Markdown table example you can edit

Start with a header such as Project, Owner, and Status, then add one record per row. The generated table works in GitHub, many documentation tools, and Markdown editors that support GitHub Flavored Markdown. Change the sample values above to see the syntax update as you type.

Bring tables across from other tools

A Word table or spreadsheet usually pastes as tab-separated data, while a copied browser table can include HTML. This table to Markdown converter handles both inputs in the grid. For a larger HTML document, use the HTML to Markdown converter and keep the surrounding headings and links with it.
