Markdown Table Generator
Create Markdown tables easily with our visual editor. Design tables with headers, alignment, and copy formatted code.
Build a Markdown table with editable headers and cells, per-column alignment, delimited-text import, and Markdown or CSV download.

Method and limits
Imports support comma, tab, semicolon and pipe separators, quoted cells, doubled quotes and quoted line breaks. The header toggle selects whether the first imported row supplies headings. Uneven rows are padded to the widest row, preserving all values.
Markdown tables have one header row and no merged cells. Pipes and backslashes are escaped; cell line breaks become <br> in Markdown and remain line breaks in CSV. HTML preview treats cell content as text. Spreadsheet formula protection is optional and affects CSV only.
These transformations run in your browser. The tool does not submit the editor contents to a conversion service. This describes the tool operation, not the site's advertising or account policies.
Try this example
Import A,B followed by "x,y",z with comma separation and a header: the first data cell is x,y, and the table has two columns and one body row. A followed by x,y retains y in a second column and reports uneven widths.
CSV exports raw values by default. Optional formula protection adds an apostrophe before cells and headers beginning with =, +, -, or @ after whitespace. It changes exported values; quoting alone does not prevent spreadsheet evaluation.

Use Cases
How to use
Edit the grid or paste delimited text, choose its separator and header setting, then import. Set alignment by column and inspect the preview before copying or downloading.
Pro Tips
- Wrap that cell in double quotes, for example "x,y". A literal double quote inside it is written twice. The importer also preserves line breaks within quoted cells.
- No. Spreadsheet applications may evaluate formula-like values even when quoted. Enable formula protection for an apostrophe prefix, or keep raw export when exact original text is required.
Troubleshooting
The table renders as plain text with visible pipes.
Either the renderer does not support tables, or the separator row is missing or has the wrong number of columns. Copy the whole block including the dashes line, and check the target supports GitHub Flavored Markdown; the original Markdown specification has no tables.
A cell containing a pipe split into two columns.
That happens when the Markdown is written by hand. This generator escapes every pipe you type as a backslash-pipe, so build the row here rather than editing the output text, and the character survives into the rendered cell.
My CSV import put everything in one column.
The delimiter selector does not match the file. Spreadsheet copies are tab-separated, exports are usually comma or semicolon separated depending on locale. Pick the matching delimiter and import again; the preview grid shows immediately whether it split correctly.
A line break inside a cell disappeared or shows as <br>.
The generator replaces a newline with a <br> tag because a real newline would end the table row. A renderer that allows inline HTML shows the break; one that strips HTML shows the tag as text. In the second case, split the content across two rows instead.
