About the HTML to Markdown Converter

While HTML is the rendering language of the web, Markdown is widely preferred for drafting, editing, version control, and documentation storage due to its human-readable syntax and minimal visual clutter. Developers and content creators frequently need to migrate legacy HTML blog posts, website content, or API documentation into Markdown for static site generators, Obsidian vaults, Notion databases, or Git repositories. This tool parses HTML structures and converts semantic elements (such as <h1>-<h6> into # tags, <strong> into **, <em> into *, <a> into [text](href), <ul>/<li> into bullet lists, and <pre><code> into fenced code blocks) while stripping unnecessary div and span tags. All conversion runs locally in client-side JavaScript, ensuring confidential corporate wikis and unreleased articles are never exposed.

How does the tool handle nested HTML tags?▾

The parser recursively unwraps nested formatting elements (such as strong text inside list items or links within paragraphs) and applies corresponding Markdown markers in valid hierarchical order.

What happens to inline style and class attributes?▾

Presentation attributes like class, style, and id are stripped during conversion because Markdown focuses strictly on content hierarchy and semantic structure.

Can I convert complete HTML documents with <html> and <body> tags?▾

Yes. The converter extracts and parses the content inside the body tags, ignoring doctype, head, and script tags.
