What is the Table Generator?

The Table Generator turns raw CSV or delimited text into clean, formatted tables. Whether you need an HTML table for your website, a Markdown table for documentation, an ASCII table for comments, or a LaTeX table for a research paper, this tool does it all instantly.

Common Uses

Documentation

Create instant Markdown tables for `README.md` files or simple ASCII tables for code comments.

Academic & Research

Generate LaTeX `tabular` code directly from your Excel or CSV data for your papers.

Web Development

Generate the HTML `<table>` boilerplate code instantly, complete with headers and body.

Data Analysis

Quickly visualize CSV files, check row/column counts, and find empty cells in the statistics panel.

Features

Robust Parsing

Smart handling of quoted fields (e.g., "Doe, John") so your data doesn't break.

Multi-Format

Export to Markdown for docs, HTML for web, ASCII for text, or LaTeX.

File Support

Upload .csv, .tsv, or .txt files directly to convert them instantly.

How to use

  1. Input: Paste your list or click "Upload File" to load a CSV.
  2. Delimiter: Select what separates your columns (Comma, Tab, Pipe).
  3. Format: Click a tab (Markdown, HTML, etc.) to generate the code.
  4. Copy: Click "Copy" to grab the code for your project.

Example - CSV to Markdown

Before (CSV)
Name,Role,Location John Doe,Developer,"New York, NY" Jane Smith,Designer,"San Francisco, CA"
After (Markdown)
| Name | Role | Location |
| --- | --- | --- |
| John Doe | Developer | New York, NY |
| Jane Smith | Designer | San Francisco, CA |

💡 Tip: The tool automatically handles the comma inside "New York, NY" correctly!

Frequently Asked Questions

What formats are supported?
We support standard CSV, TSV, Pipe (|), and Semicolon (;) delimited data. Our robust parser handles complex data, including fields with commas inside quotes.
Can I generate tables for Reddit or GitHub?
Yes! Use the "Markdown" tab for GitHub and the "ASCII" tab for text-based platforms like Reddit or Discord.
Is LaTeX supported?
Yes. We automatically generate valid LaTeX code for your academic papers or documents.
Is my data secure?
Yes. All parsing happens in your browser. We never see or store your data.
Can I use this for Excel data?
Yes! Simply select your cells in Excel, copy them (Ctrl+C), and paste them into our tool. We will automatically detect the tabs.
How do I handle commas in my data?
Our tool is smart. If your CSV has commas inside quotes (e.g., "Paris, France"), we parse it correctly instead of breaking the row.
Is there a limit on file size?
Since processing happens in your browser, you can handle fairly large files (up to 5MB or 50,000 rows) without issues.
