csv-to-md

Reads a CSV file and writes the data as a Markdown table.

The CSV file must be formatted as a table, with a single heading row, with unique column titles, followed by data rows.

If you have uv installed, you can use uvx to run the csv-to-md tool without installing it. This command runs it and displays the help message:

uvx --from git+https://github.com/wmelvin/csv-to-md csv-to-md -h
