WordPress to Markdown: give the content a way out

A conversion service for moving WordPress content into a Markdown-based site.

Changing a website's publishing system also means finding a way to move the content that already exists.

WordPress to Markdown describes converting a WordPress export into Markdown files for use with Gatsby, Jekyll, Hugo, or Jigsaw. Its public page centers the workflow on supplying the export and receiving the converted files.

Work from the content someone already has

That gives the service a clear input and output. The person starts with a WordPress export; the deliverable is a set of files they can take into a different publishing workflow.

The migration is about more than copying the words. A post also has a title, a date, links, and possibly images. Those details need attention when the destination represents the content differently.

The project is a focused example of software supporting a transition. The goal is to help someone carry their existing work forward. The details of what survives the move are what make the result useful.
