CSV to Markdown Table
Convert CSV data into a formatted Markdown table.
Markdown tables are everywhere in developer life — READMEs, GitHub issues, documentation, pull request descriptions — but writing them by hand, aligning pipes and dashes across columns, is miserable. Your data usually already lives in a spreadsheet or CSV; converting it directly saves all that fiddling.
Paste CSV (or copy straight from Excel/Sheets as comma-separated data) and this tool produces a properly formatted Markdown table with a header row, aligned columns and escaped pipe characters. The first row becomes the table header. Copy it into any Markdown document and it renders as a clean table.

Common mistakes to avoid
