How to generate a Markdown checklist

To generate a Markdown checklist, paste your items into the input box, one per line or separated by commas. The generator converts each item into a task-list entry using the standard syntax, a dash followed by an empty or filled checkbox, so it renders correctly on GitHub, GitLab, and most Markdown viewers.

Choose whether items start unchecked, which is the default for fresh to-do lists, or checked, which is handy when documenting completed work. A live preview shows exactly how the checklist will render, and the source stays ready to copy or download.

All conversion happens locally in your browser. Your text is never uploaded to a server, so you can safely turn private planning notes into clean Markdown.

  • Paste newline or comma-separated items
  • Pick checked or unchecked defaults
  • Review the rendered preview
  • Copy the Markdown task list

Why use a dedicated checklist generator

Markdown checklist syntax is simple once you remember it, but typing the dash and bracket prefix for every line gets tedious, and a single mistyped bracket breaks the rendering. A dedicated generator removes that friction and produces consistent output every time.

It is especially useful for turning loose planning notes into structured task lists for GitHub issues, pull request templates, README setup steps, or meeting action items. Paste the rough list, generate, and your checklist is ready to drop in.

Because it accepts both newline and comma-separated input, you can paste from almost anywhere, a note app, a chat message, or a spreadsheet cell, without reformatting first.
