What is README?

A form-based README builder that assembles a complete, well-structured README.md from your project's details.

How it works

Each form section maps to a README section (intro, install, usage, badges, license, contributing) and is stitched together into a Markdown document.

  1. Enter your input. Type or paste your input into the field above — the tool responds instantly.
  2. Review the result. Output updates live as you type. Everything runs entirely in your browser.
  3. Copy or download. Use the Copy button to grab the result, or Download to save it as a file.

Examples

Common mistakes
