JSON to Markdown

Paste JSON and get a readable Markdown outline. An array of uniform flat objects — the common API-response shape — renders automatically as a Markdown table instead of a nested list.

Nothing you paste here is uploaded anywhere — the conversion happens entirely in your browser.

Documenting an API response

Paste a sample JSON response and get a Markdown table ready to drop into API docs.

Config files in a README

Turn a JSON config object into a readable nested list for documentation.

Quick data inspection

See nested JSON structure laid out as an outline instead of scanning brackets.

When does it produce a table vs. a list?

An array where every item is a flat object (no nested objects/arrays inside) becomes a table. Anything else — nested objects, mixed types, single objects — renders as a nested bullet list.

What happens with invalid JSON?

You'll see a clear parse error instead of a blank or broken output — fix the syntax and it converts immediately.

Are deeply nested structures readable?

Yes, though very deep nesting (5+ levels) gets harder to scan as a list regardless of formatting — that's a JSON readability limit, not a tool limit.
