How do I turn CSV into an ASCII table?

Paste CSV, choose an output style, and copy the generated table. Quoted commas, escaped quotes, and multiline CSV fields are supported.

Can I generate a terminal table from JSON?

Yes. Paste an array of objects or arrays. Object keys become column headings and nested values are preserved as compact JSON.

No. Parsing and table generation happen locally in your browser.

Paste CSV, TSV, a JSON array, or an HTML table. Get a clean text table for terminals, READMEs, tickets, logs, and chat—generated automatically in this browser.

1. Paste structured data

Auto-detect works for CSV, TSV, JSON arrays, and HTML tables.

Handles real structured data

The CSV parser understands quoted commas, escaped quotes, and line breaks inside fields. JSON object keys become headers, while copied HTML table cells become rows and columns.

Fits terminal-sized spaces

Cap column width and wrap or truncate long cells. Numeric-only columns can align right automatically so values remain easy to compare.

Need the other direction?

Paste terminal output into the ASCII Table Converter to get a real HTML table, CSV, or Excel workbook.

Choose Unicode borders for polished terminal output, classic ASCII for maximum compatibility, PostgreSQL style for database-like results, or Markdown when the destination renders pipe tables. Width limits and wrapping keep long URLs, stack fragments, and descriptions inside chat, ticket, and console constraints.
