Markdown table generator
GenerateExperimentalLimited support. Verify anything critical.
A Markdown table generator turns an editable row-and-column grid into pipe-table syntax suitable for documentation, issue trackers, and static-site content. The first row becomes the header, each column can be aligned left, center, or right, literal pipe characters are escaped, and line breaks become HTML break tags. Rows and columns can be added or removed with ordinary buttons, giving keyboard users the same complete path as pointer users.

How to use Markdown table generator
Start with the header row
The first row defines column names. Alignment controls above each column generate the appropriate colon markers in the delimiter row.
Keep tables readable
Tables work best for compact comparisons. Long narrative cells usually belong in headings and paragraphs rather than a horizontally scrolling grid.

Are literal pipe characters supported?
