Markdown to Slack
Convert Markdown to Slack mrkdwn so it formats correctly when you paste it into Slack.
Example
**Ship it** and _test_ — see [docs](/d).
*Ship it* and _test_ — see </d|docs>.
What it keeps
- Bold, italic and strikethrough
- Inline code and code blocks
- Lists, links and images, mapped to Slack conventions
Where it struggles
- Slack uses a single * for bold and has no headings, so headings become bold lines
- Slack has no tables, so tables become an aligned code block
Frequently asked questions
Does it work for Discord?
Discord reads standard Markdown, so paste your Markdown into Discord as it is. This tool writes Slack mrkdwn.
Why did my ** bold change to *?
Slack's mrkdwn uses a single asterisk for bold, so the converter adjusts it to match.
What happens to headings?
Slack has no headings, so they're turned into bold lines.
