The Text to Table Converter automatically parses delimiters, calculates column widths, and generates clean GitHub-flavored Markdown tables for README docs, responsive HTML tables with semantic <thead> tags for web pages, and aligned ASCII grids for terminal and email readability.

Supported Output Formats Guide

Format	Syntax Structure	Recommended Platforms & Use Cases
Markdown Table	`\| Header 1 \| Header 2 \| \| :--- \| :--- \|`	GitHub README.md, Reddit posts, Notion docs, Jira issues, Obsidian notes.

ASCII Grid	`+--------+--------+ \| Header \| Value \| +--------+--------+`	Terminal console outputs, plain-text emails, source code comment blocks.
