Markdown Translator AI — Keep Code Blocks & Links

Translate README files and technical documentation with AI while preserving headings, tables, links, and fenced code blocks. Ideal for open-source repos and developer docs going global.

Code inside triple-backtick fences and inline backticks is never translated. URLs and image paths stay stable; only human-readable prose changes.

Built for technical writers and devrel

  • Markdown-aware prompts: headings, lists, tables, and link syntax stay valid.
  • Code fence validation: ensures ``` blocks remain byte-identical after translation.
  • Upload .md files and download localized copies ready to commit as README.ja.md.
  • Diff view to audit translated prose without scrolling two windows.
  • Batch mode for translating multiple docs in one session.

Markdown Translator AI — FAQ

Translate README and technical docs while keeping Markdown syntax and code blocks intact.

Can AI translate Markdown docs without breaking code blocks?

Yes. Fenced code blocks (triple backticks) and inline code are excluded from translation. Headings, lists, tables, and link URLs are preserved; only human-readable text is translated.

How do I translate a README.md file with AI?

Copy the full Markdown, set Target: on the first line for your output language, and run markdown-translate. Output is ready to commit as README.ja.md or docs localized copies.

Is markdown translator ai free on Routara?

markdown-translate is free with a daily quota (30 runs/tool after email verification). VIP members get unlimited runs. Optimized for developer docs and README localization.

Will links and image paths stay the same?

URLs and image paths are not modified. Link anchor text is translated so readers in each locale see natural labels while href values remain stable.

Does it work for API reference docs with mixed code and prose?

Yes. Technical sections with bash, JSON, or TypeScript samples inside fences remain verbatim; surrounding explanations are translated for global developer audiences.
