WebToMarkdown

Copy or download the current page as clean Markdown.

WebToMarkdown turns the page you're reading into clean Markdown. Open a docs page, an article or a release note, click the toolbar button, and press Copy Current Page or Download .md. You get the readable part of the page, ready to paste into your notes, a README or an AI chat. There's nothing to sign up for. What it does • Keeps headings, lists, links, code blocks with their language, and tables • Drops navigation, sidebars, cookie prompts and "Was this helpful?" widgets • Copies to your clipboard, or saves a .md file named after the page • Shows a word count and a preview of the result in the popup • Works from the toolbar popup, the right-click menu or a keyboard shortcut: Alt+Shift+M (Option+Shift+M on Mac) copies the page, and you can add a shortcut for downloads in Chrome's extension shortcut settings • Keeps your last 100 copies in the popup, so you can copy one again, download it, open its source page or delete it • Lets you choose what's included: YAML frontmatter, a title heading, a source link and tables. Change settings from the popup, without leaving the page How it works Everything happens in your browser. When you press a button, pick the menu item or use the shortcut, WebToMarkdown reads the tab you're on, finds the main content and converts it to Markdown. It doesn't run on the pages you visit until you ask, and it never reads your other tabs. Private by design No accounts, no analytics, and no WebToMarkdown server. Pages are converted on your device and nothing is uploaded. Settings and copy history are kept in Chrome's extension storage on your device. You can delete any saved copy, clear them all, or turn history off. Free and open source WebToMarkdown is free to use and open source under the MIT License. Not supported • Browser pages such as chrome:// pages and the Chrome Web Store, which Chrome doesn't let extensions read • Text inside embedded frames and canvases, which is left out • Images are kept as links to the original, not saved with the Markdown • Whole sites: it converts one page at a time
