Why use this tool

  • GitHub Flavored Markdown syntax — works on GitHub, GitLab, Reddit, Discord, most static site generators.
  • Per-column alignment with the standard :--, :--:, --: syntax.
  • Paste from spreadsheets — Excel, Sheets, Numbers all copy as TSV.
  • Auto-escapes pipe characters and converts newlines to <br>.

Frequently asked questions

How do I include a pipe character in a cell?

Just type it — the tool escapes it as \| in the output, which renders correctly in GFM.

Can I paste from Excel or Google Sheets?

Yes. Both apps copy as tab-separated values. Use the Paste button, leave delimiter on Auto-detect, and paste.

Why does my table look misaligned in the output?

The output is padded for source readability, but Markdown renderers ignore extra spaces inside cells — the rendered table looks identical regardless.

What is Markdown Table Generator?

A Markdown Table Generator is a tool that builds GitHub Flavored Markdown tables from data entered in a live editable grid. It runs in the browser and accepts pasted TSV or CSV input, which it parses into rows and columns, and it lets the user set text alignment per column. The output is GFM table syntax ready to paste into Markdown documents.
