How to strip Markdown syntax to plain text

Formatting is great for reading, but sometimes you need unformatted plain text. Copying Markdown raw still leaves delimiters like hashes, asterisks, and brackets. This tool strips them all.

What formatting is removed?

  • Headings (hashes removed, text preserved)
  • Bold & Italic indicators (asterisks and underscores stripped)
  • Links (brackets and URLs removed, link anchor text preserved)
  • Code blocks and inline code quotes
  • Lists and task checkboxes
