The formats
HTML and Markdown at a glance
What is an HTML file?
HTML is the markup language web pages are written in. An HTML file holds text with tags for headings, paragraphs, links, lists, tables, and images, and any browser can display it. It opens in every browser, code editors like VS Code, Microsoft Word, and LibreOffice.
What is a Markdown file?
Markdown is plain text with simple marks for formatting, like # for headings, ** for bold, and - for lists. It's the standard for README files, documentation, notes apps like Obsidian, and AI chat apps, and it converts cleanly to HTML. It opens in any text editor, VS Code, Obsidian, Typora, GitHub, and Notion (by import).
Good to know
What changes when you convert HTML to Markdown
- Styles from the page's CSS, scripts, and images from other websites aren't loaded. Basic formatting like headings, bold, lists, and tables is kept.
FAQ
Questions, answered
Is this HTML to Markdown converter free?
Yes. It's completely free, with no sign-up, no watermark, and no limit on how many files you convert. It costs Ethical Tube nothing to run, because the conversion happens on your own device rather than on a server.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No. The conversion runs inside your browser with pdf.js and open-source document libraries, so your files never leave your device. Once the page has loaded, it even works offline.
Can I convert several HTML files at once?
Yes. Add as many as you like. They're converted one after another, and you can download each Markdown file as soon as it's ready or all of them in one ZIP file.
Does it work on iPhone, Android, Mac, and Windows?
Yes. It works in Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari, on computers and phones.
What can open a Markdown file?
Any text editor, VS Code, Obsidian, Typora, GitHub, and Notion (by import).
Is there a file size limit?
There's no upload limit because nothing is uploaded. The practical limit is your device's memory: everyday files are fine, and most computers handle documents with hundreds of pages.
