How the PHP array becomes MD table
A small recursive parser walks the array() or [] structure token by token, honoring 'key' => value pairs, nested arrays, quoted strings with escapes, numbers, booleans and null. Each top-level associative array becomes one row, and the Markdown table serializer then renders those rows in the target format with correct escaping for MD table.
Getting the best results
Press Load sample first to see the exact PHP array shape the converter expects, then replace it with your own data. If a conversion errors, the message names the exact line or token at fault, so fixing the input is usually a one-minute job. For repeated jobs, bookmark the page; your data never leaves the browser.
Both array(...) and [...] syntax work, with 'key' => value pairs, nested arrays, quoted strings, numbers, booleans and null. You can include the opening <?php tag and a $variable = assignment, they are stripped automatically. A list of associative arrays converts cleanest; plain lists become single-column rows.
Where can I use the Markdown table?
Anywhere Markdown renders: GitHub READMEs, issues and wikis, Notion, Obsidian and most docs tools. Pipes inside cells are escaped so columns never break, and the header separator row keeps alignment parsers happy.
What happens to nested PHP arrays?
Nested arrays are preserved as nested structures in the output where the format allows it (JSON, PHP, XML), and rendered as compact JSON text in flat formats like Markdown table. Scalar lists become rows with a single value column.
Is there a size limit for PHP array input?
No hard limit, but everything runs in your browser tab, so tens of thousands of rows convert in seconds while millions of rows may slow the page. For very large PHP array files, split them into smaller chunks and convert each separately.
Is my PHP array data private, and who uses this?
Yes. The conversion runs 100% in your browser; nothing is uploaded to any server. Developers, analysts and DBAs use it to move PHP array data into Markdown table for migrations, reports and config work without installing anything.
