excel-to-markdown - Markdown the Excel specification

In Japan (although I do not know abroad) Excel is used instead of word processor for some reason. It seems that there tends to be widely used especially in the field of system development, and even if it is a test specification, basic design documents etc are also made in Excel.

Searchability is low and maintenance is also troublesome. I would like to use excel-to-markdown there.

After conversion. It is markdown file.

The table is also reproduced. In addition, the image has passed the path.

excel-to-markdown makes Excel specification a Markdown file to make it easy to use. Please note that this does not mean that you will be maintaining the Markdown file. It only improves the poor usability of Excel files to the last. It will be good to automatically convert it to Markdown file with batch when the Excel specification is updated.

excel-to-markdown is Go's open source software (MIT License).
