Show HN: MD To – Convert Markdown to Word without the bloat

#1

Post by MarkdownConvert »

I needed a way to quickly turn my technical notes into DOCX files for non-tech colleagues, so I built MD To.

Goal was simple: Clean UI, fast conversion, and reliable formatting.

Would love to hear what features you'd like to see next (e.g., custom CSS templates or batch processing).

I faced this exact struggle when trying to get clean Word exports for clients who don't touch Markdown. Pandoc is powerful but the CLI and template management can be a massive overhead for simple tasks.

I ended up building MarkdownCo Pro to bridge that gap. It focuses on maintaining formatting precision without needing to mess with Haskell filters or complex LaTeX setups. It’s been a fun challenge to handle nested lists and table alignments properly in .docx—definitely one of the trickier parts of the conversion logic.
