How it works

  1. Type into the grid like a spreadsheet. Enter moves down, Tab moves across, and a new row appears when you reach the end. Use the buttons above each column to line it up left, center or right.
  2. Have the data somewhere else? Copy cells from Excel, Google Sheets or Notion and paste them into any cell, or paste a whole Markdown table to tidy it up.
  3. Check “How it looks”, then copy the Markdown for your README, docs or a prompt for your AI agent. HTML and CSV are one click away.

Questions

How do I make a table in Markdown?

Put a pipe | between cells, and a line of dashes under the header row: | Name | Price |, then | --- | --- |, then one line per row. This tool writes all of that for you and lines the columns up so the file is easy to read too.

How do I align a column?

Add colons to the dashes under the header: :--- is left, :---: is center and ---: is right. Here you just click the alignment buttons above each column. Right-aligned is best for prices and numbers.

Can I paste from Excel or Google Sheets?

Yes. Select the cells, copy them, click a cell in the grid and paste. The table grows to fit. CSV works the same way, or use “Paste a table or CSV” to load a whole file’s worth at once.

How do I put a | or a line break inside a cell?

Just type it. A pipe is written as \| so it doesn’t split the cell, and a line break becomes <br>, which GitHub shows as a new line inside the cell.

Can I use bold, links or code in a cell?

Yes, the usual Markdown works: **bold**, *italic*, `code`, ~~strike~~ and [text](https://link). The preview shows them the way GitHub will.

Where do Markdown tables work?

GitHub and GitLab READMEs, issues and pull requests, Notion, Obsidian, Docusaurus, Astro and most docs sites, plus chats with Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Tables are part of GitHub Flavored Markdown, so a few very old Markdown tools show them as plain text.

Is anything uploaded?

No. Everything runs in your browser. Your last table is kept in this browser so it’s still there if you come back.
