Paste Markdown (a whole README is fine) or open a .md file: every table in it is found, and the one you pick is converted to CSV you can open in Excel or Google Sheets. Escaped pipes, <br> line breaks and inline formatting are handled. Nothing is uploaded.

Any line containing pipes that is followed by a separator line (|---|:---:|) starts a table, which runs until a blank line or a line without a pipe, as GitHub reads it. Leading and trailing pipes are optional. \| becomes a literal pipe (also inside `code` spans), <br> becomes a line break inside the CSV field, and rows that are shorter than the header get empty cells.
The file is UTF-8 with standard quoting: fields that contain the separator, a quote, a line break or edge spaces are wrapped in quotes. If accents look wrong when you double-click the file in Excel, use Data → From Text/CSV and choose UTF-8, or pick the Semicolon separator if your Excel expects it (common in Europe).
Need the table as a picture for a slide, a chat message or an email? Copy the Markdown into Markdown to PDF, or render the HTML table with the Shotmint API: POST https://shotmint.creasework.com/v1/screenshot with {"html": "<table>…</table>", "selector": "table"} returns a PNG cropped to the table (1 credit; 25 free renders a month, then €5 for 2,000 that never expire). Scripts and AI agents can get a key with a bare POST https://shotmint.creasework.com/v1/keys/free.

Is my data uploaded? No. Parsing and conversion run in your browser; this page sends nothing to a server.
Do Chinese, Japanese or Korean characters line up? Yes: "Pad columns" counts wide characters and most emoji as two columns, the way monospaced editors draw them.
