markdown-clipper

This is a Firefox and Google Chrome extension to clip websites and download them into a readable markdown file.

It uses the following two libraries:

  • Readability.js by Mozilla in version from commit 977be42d1fb33781401001318813ab9fe4568647. This library is also used for the Firefox Reader View and it simplifies the page so that only the important parts are clipped. (Licensed under Apache License Version 2.0)
  • Turndown by Dom Christie in version 5.0.1 is used to convert the simplified HTML (from Readability.js) into markdown. (Licensed under MIT License)

Installation

Permissions

  • Access tabs: used to access the website content when the icon in the browser bar is clicked.
  • Manage Downloads: neccessary to be able to download the markdown file.
