## What is Markdown Tables?

Stop getting frustrated when you need a table. Create tables for use in your favorite Markdown writing app with Markdown Tables.

Writing tables in Markdown is hard. Most Markdown writing apps don't give you an easy way to create and edit tables. Markdown Tables is here to help.

Create your table, then paste into your writing app. If you want to edit an existing table, copy it to the clipboard from your writing app then tap Import in Markdown Tables. On iPad use split view with drag and drop to make edits even quicker.

Markdown Tables includes features to insert/delete rows and columns, change column alignment and toggle use of the header row.

If your writing app only supports HTML tables then you can configure Markdown Tables to export HTML instead.

Check out markdowntables.app/guide for how best to use Markdown Tables with some of the top writing apps on the App Store.

(Note that this app works best with writing apps based on Markdown - if you aren't sure if your favorite app uses Markdown check its product page on the App Store.)

### 3/5 — Good for small tables only

*2024-08-22*

This app is good for small tables. What it does, it seems to do well. However, it is NOT good for larger tables as the text doesn't wrap in the cell and carriage returns are not allowed in a cell. Also, you can apparently only have one table at a time & no saved tables. Please fix these issues. Thanks.

### 4/5 — I wish you can go back and see old tables

*2021-02-20*

Options to change colors etc

### 5/5 — Reliable for HTML and markdown export

*2020-07-15*

The HTML is compatible with Ulysses. 
 
The only thing I would suggest for future versions is a setting to support more ways different markdown apps expect the code between the header row and the next row. For example, iA Writer expects a “:” before dashes.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the review! There will be an update in the next few days which has a new option to always include an explicit left align ":" before dashes (will be turned on by default but can be disabled in the settings). Look at for 1.4 later this week.

### 5/5 — I miss trunk notes.

*2020-05-18*

This app saves so much time.  Helpful to say the least.

### 5/5 — LOVE THE APP

*2020-02-04*

SLEEK AND WELL MADE

### 5/5 — Excellent App for Creating Markdown Tables

*2019-10-31*

I usually rely on Tableflip to make more complex Markdown tables. But this requires a Mac. I was pleasantly surprised to see that this app allows me to cut and paste from a numbers spreadsheet. This makes making a table much easier.

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2019-10-26*

Very terrible app

**Developer response:** Please do get in touch with detail as to how you think the app could be improved. Feedback on how I can improve the app to better meet a users needs is always gratefully received.

### 4/5 — Import from Clipboard could be better

*2019-10-24*

The app expects Markdown from the clipboard, but that limits the functionality to editing your own Markdown as the source. It’s quite common to copy from spreadsheets or other table sources. It would be great if non-Markdown sources could be pasted in.

**Developer response:** You can paste tables copied from web pages, and from some apps such as Excel. If you have any sources you would like to see supported please get in touch.

### 5/5 — Very responsive developer!

*2019-10-17*

This is a very helpful utility for markdown writers. There is definitely room for refinement, but development is progressing quickly and the developer is incredibly responsive

### 5/5 — Helpful app

*2019-10-07*

This is a helpful little app for creating tables for Markdown apps. You can create tables or paste them in from, say, a spreadsheet. Export to the clipboard to put them in your Markdown editor.

The app does a nice job of adding white space to make the table line up nicely in the Markdown. Of course, this doesn’t change the final output of the document at all, but it does make the “raw” Markdown look better and easier to work with.
