Summary — What Free Obsidian Wikilinks to Markdown Does
What This Free Tool Is
Free Obsidian Wikilinks to Markdown Converter takes Obsidian notes with [[wikilinks]], [[Page|Alias]], [[Page#Heading]], and ![[image.png]] embeds and rewrites them as standard Markdown links and images. Migration-ready — configure slug format, space replacement, asset prefix, and embed handling to match your target system.
Privacy: This tool runs entirely in your browser. Your text is never uploaded, logged, or cached. Close the tab and it's gone. Verify in DevTools → Network: zero requests fire.
Why It's Free (And How We Keep It Free)
Leaving Obsidian for a static site, a blog, or another markdown editor shouldn't mean hand-rewriting every wikilink. The converter runs 100% in your browser, and your notes never leave your device.

Obsidian Wikilinks to Markdown Features
Here's what this free tool does in detail — every feature is built to solve real problems, runs entirely in your browser, and is free forever.
Every Obsidian Wikilink Variant
Handles all five common forms: [[Page Name]], [[Page|Alias]], [[Page#Heading]], [[Page#Heading|Alias]], and [[Page^block-id]] block refs. The block ref suffix is stripped (standard Markdown has no equivalent); everything else is mapped to [text](page-slug.md) or [text](page-slug.md#heading).
If your notes also contain GFM alerts, check the Free Markdown Alert Generator to preview them.
Image and Note Embed Handling
Image embeds like ![[diagram.png]] become standard Markdown images  with an optional asset prefix (useful if your destination stores images under assets/ or attachments/). Note embeds ![[Page]] have three strategies: link (convert to a regular link since standard MD has no transclusion), drop (remove entirely), or keep (leave raw for a custom renderer).
For converting HTML notes from other sources, use the Free HTML to Markdown tool.
Configurable Slug Format
Different static site generators expect different slug styles. Toggle lowercase slugs on or off, and pick hyphen or underscore for space replacement, so [[Page Name]] becomes page-name.md, Page_Name.md, Page-Name.md, or any combination. The .md extension is editable too (use .mdx for MDX sites or drop entirely for slug-only URLs).
Live Wikilink Stats
The stats row under the editor shows exactly what's in your note: total wikilinks, regular vs embeds, image embeds, count with aliases, and count with heading anchors. Useful for estimating migration scope before running a batch and for verifying that every link was picked up.
For deeper link analysis after conversion, use the Free Markdown Link Extractor.
