Excel to HTML & Markdown Table
Convert an Excel sheet into a clean HTML table or a Markdown table, ready to paste into a web page, a README, a wiki or a documentation site, without the bloated markup Excel produces when you copy directly.
An Excel to HTML converter turns a sheet into a clean table you can paste into a page, a README or a wiki, without the bloated markup Excel adds when you copy directly. Open a workbook, pick a sheet, and get a semantic HTML table or a GitHub-style Markdown table, so it works to convert a spreadsheet to an HTML table or a Markdown table. The first row becomes proper header cells, so a sheet turns into a table led by a clean thead. It all happens on your own device.

Frequently asked questions
- Why not just copy from Excel into my page?
- Pasting from Excel into a web editor brings along heavy inline styles and proprietary attributes that bloat your page and are hard to clean up. This tool emits a plain, semantic table instead, so a two-column sheet becomes <table><thead><tr><th>Name</th><th>Email</th></tr></thead> and clean rows below, keeping your markup small and easy to style.
- What is the Markdown table for?
- Markdown tables render on GitHub, GitLab, many wikis and most documentation systems. If you are writing a README or a docs page, the Markdown option gives you a table that displays correctly there with no HTML at all.
- Does the first row become a header?
- Yes. The first row is treated as the table header, so HTML uses a proper thead and th cells, and Markdown adds the divider row beneath the headings. You can turn that off if your sheet has no header.
