I recently created a little tool called LinkToMarkdown (<https://linktomarkdown.com/>](https://linktomarkdown.com/)). It extracts web content and generates clean Markdown text with just one click.
To be honest, I developed this tool purely out of personal need. I often want to save articles from the web, but I'm always frustrated by ads, pop-ups, and all sorts of clutter. One day, I'd had enough and thought, "Why isn't there a tool that can give me just the plain text?"
So I decided to roll up my sleeves and build it myself. That's how LinkToMarkdown was born. It can:
1. Automatically filter out junk content and ads 2. Preserve the original structure and formatting 3. Output clean Markdown text
I've found it particularly useful for:
- Saving tech blog posts for note-taking - Organizing news articles for research - Saving articles for later reading - Extracting product documentation
It's super simple to use - just paste the link, click a button, and you're done!
I know there are quite a few similar tools out there, but I think LinkToMarkdown has some advantages in terms of ease of use and output quality. Of course, that's just my personal opinion.
I'd love to hear what you all think. Any suggestions? Areas for improvement? Feel free to try it out and let me know!
Happy using, everyone! :)
