About
A converter, a demo, and a bit of craft.
This is a free, privacy-first tool for turning Word documents into clean Markdown - and it doubles as a living demo of the open-source engine that powers it.
Why it exists
I wrote docx_to_markdown, a pure-Dart package that converts .docx files to
Markdown with Pandoc-level fidelity. A package is easier to trust when
you can see it work, so I built this site to be three things at
once: a genuinely useful converter, a showcase for the package, and a
piece I'm happy to put in my portfolio.
How it stays private
There is no server doing the conversion. The Dart package is compiled to JavaScript and runs entirely in your browser, so your document never leaves your device. That makes it safe for confidential files - and it keeps the tool free to run.
What it's built with
- Astro Static, near-zero-JS site for fast pages and clean SEO
- docx_to_markdown The Dart conversion engine, compiled to JavaScript
- Client-side only No backend - conversion happens in your browser
