Markdown Table Generator
Set columns and rows and enter content to generate Markdown table syntax instantly.
Category: Text Tools
When to use?
Use it when you need a Markdown table in a GitHub README or technical doc and writing pipe (|) syntax by hand is tedious. Enter content in a GUI and the Markdown table code is generated automatically.
How to use
- Set the column and row counts.
- Enter content in each cell.
- Choose column alignment (left/center/right).
- Copy the generated Markdown table code.
Input Explanation
Enter the number of columns and rows to generate, and the content for each cell.
Calculation Basis
It joins your data into Markdown table syntax (| cell | cell |, |---|---|). The alignment option changes the colon (:) position in the separator row.
Usage Examples
- Write README tables - Easily make Markdown tables for a README or doc via a GUI.
- Generate comparison tables - Enter a product/feature comparison and convert to Markdown instantly.
- Quickly draft table data - Set rows and columns to build a table skeleton, then fill in content.
Examples
- A Name | Age | Job table becomes | Name | Age | Job |\n|---|---|---| format
- Set 3 columns x 5 rows → auto-generate table code to paste in a README
Cautions
- Counts can vary by how spaces and line breaks are handled.
- Markdown tables do not support line breaks within a cell; use a <br> tag instead.
Guides
Markdown table syntax
Markdown tables separate columns with | and split header/body with |-|-|. Alignment uses :--- (left), ---: (right), :---: (center).
Using the generator
Specify row/column counts to auto-build the table skeleton. To turn CSV into a Markdown table, use the CSV/Markdown converter.
