How Does It Work?
This converter transforms HTML into clean Markdown by parsing common tags and replacing them with their Markdown equivalents. Headings become # symbols, bold/italic become ** and *, links become [text](url), lists become dashes or numbers, and all remaining HTML tags are stripped. The conversion runs in real time as you type.
Example
Input: <h1>Title</h1><p>Hello <strong>World</strong></p>
Output:
# Title
Hello **World**

Will the output be perfectly formatted?
For simple to moderately complex HTML, the output is clean and usable. For highly nested or complex HTML, you may need to manually adjust the Markdown formatting.
