What it does

Tables without the pipes

Markdown tables are easy to read and fiddly to write. This does the fiddly part.

Download a document as Markdown, a web page or a PDF from the File menu
  1. Type into cells

    No pipes, no dashes, no lining up columns by hand.

  2. Drag to reorder

    Move rows and columns by their handles.

  3. Paste in a table

    Paste a Markdown table and edit it the same way.

  4. Copy as Markdown

    Get clean Markdown back, ready for a README, a doc or a chat.

  5. Free and private

    No sign-up, and nothing leaves your browser.
