My latest vibe coding project, born from a frustrating copy-paste
Here's the story: I use AI every day, but whenever I tried to copy its Markdown-formatted answers to other platforms, the formatting would break completely. Just a mess of ## and * symbols. It was super annoying to clean up.
I don't have the patience for that kind of repetitive hassle. So, I just had a little vibe coding session and quickly built a small tool for myself. It did one thing: turn Markdown into clean plain text with a single click.
At first, it was just a little toy for my own use.
Then, a while back, I saw the news that Microsoft was officially adding Markdown support to Windows Notepad. It clicked for me right then: this once-niche language was about to go mainstream. In the future, countless new users would run into the exact same problems I had, and probably more.
So, I took that little tool born from an impulse and expanded it into a more complete website: the MDUtil you see today. I added features like a live preview and a table generator—things that help beginners get up to speed quickly.
The core idea is simple: a good tool should solve your problem and then get out of your way, letting you focus on what actually matters.
Hope you like it.
