How it works
Click the dropzone above or drag a HTML from your desktop. Files of any size, there's no upload, so there's no upload limit.
The conversion runs entirely in this tab using JavaScript and WebAssembly. Your file never touches our servers, we don't have any.
Get your Markdown the moment the conversion finishes. Convert another, or close the tab.
Your file is never uploaded. The entire conversion runs in your browser using WebAssembly. We can't see what you convert because we have no server to see it.
Server converters cap free users at 1-2 GB and gate larger files behind a paid plan. Since nothing uploads, our limit is whatever your browser can handle.
No account required. No watermark on the output. No queue. Drop a file, get a converted file.
Formats involved
HTML is the markup language of the web, every browser displays HTML documents natively. Files contain text plus tags (<h1>, <p>, <a>, etc.) describing structure and links. Modern HTML5 also supports embedded media (audio/video) and complex semantic markup.
How to open
Every web browser. Any text editor for source. Modern editors (VS Code) syntax-highlight HTML.
Markdown is plain text with simple punctuation conventions for formatting, # for headings, * for lists, ** for bold, links as [text](url). Created by John Gruber in 2004 and now the default for GitHub READMEs, documentation sites, and modern note-taking apps (Obsidian, Notion-export, Bear).
How to open

Nowhere. The conversion runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript and WebAssembly. Your file is never uploaded to our servers. We don't have any servers handling files, there's nothing for us to log, store, or accidentally leak.
Whatever your browser can hold in memory. Practically, this means a few hundred MB on most computers, significantly larger than the 1-2 GB caps that server-upload converters charge for. Very large files (multi-GB) may require closing other browser tabs first.
Web pages; structured document interchange; readable archives. Documentation, READMEs, notes, blog posts. The most common reason to convert is compatibility, Markdown works in places where HTML doesn't, or vice versa.

Once the page is loaded, the conversion itself runs entirely offline. The first time you use a tool, your browser downloads the conversion library (a one-time cache). If you reload while offline, the page won't load, but you can install the site as a Progressive Web App for full offline use.
Single file at a time for now. Batch conversion is on the roadmap, for now, drop one file, download the result, then convert the next.
