About HTML to Markdown Conversion
Converting HTML to Markdown is useful when migrating content from a CMS to a Markdown-based static site generator (Hugo, Jekyll, Gatsby), extracting content from web pages for documentation, converting legacy HTML content to a more portable format, or cleaning up content pasted from rich text editors. The conversion maps HTML elements to Markdown equivalents: h1-h6 → headings, strong/b → bold, em/i → italic, a → links, img → images, ul/ol/li → lists.
FAQ
Why doesn't the converted Markdown look exactly like the original HTML?
Markdown is a subset of HTML formatting — it does not support all CSS styling, custom colours, or advanced layout. Elements like div, span, table (partially), and CSS classes have no direct Markdown equivalent and are either stripped or converted to their nearest equivalent. For full fidelity, complex HTML layouts should remain as HTML rather than be converted to Markdown.
