What is markdown table generator?
Markdown tables are how most README files, blog posts, and documentation pages present structured data. They are easy to read in source, render nicely on GitHub, and survive copy-paste into most editors. But typing the pipe characters and alignment dashes by hand is tedious and error-prone.
This tool takes your data (typed in, pasted as CSV, or pasted as a key/value grid) and produces a properly-formatted table with the right column count, alignment dashes, and cell padding. You can also pick per-column alignment: left (default for text), right (good for numbers), or center.
How to use it
-
Add a header row
Type the column names in the first row, separated by tabs or commas.
-
Add your data rows
Type or paste each row, one per line. Same separator as the header (tab or comma).
-
Set alignment (optional)
Click a column header to cycle through left, center, and right alignment.
-
Copy the table
Use Copy to grab the rendered markdown.
