Why Convert HTML to Markdown?
Markdown is the standard for documentation, README files, wikis, and static site generators. If you have content in HTML and need to move it to a Markdown-based system, manual conversion is tedious and error-prone.
Common use cases include migrating blog posts from a CMS to a static site generator like Jekyll, Hugo, or Astro, converting web page content into GitHub README files, and turning HTML email templates into Markdown for documentation.
This converter handles the mapping automatically so you can focus on content, not formatting. Need to clean up your HTML first? Use the HTML Formatter before converting. Want to preview raw HTML? Try the HTML Viewer.

Lists and Structure
Ordered lists, unordered lists, and nested lists are properly indented. Blockquotes and horizontal rules are also supported.
