Instantly convert web articles, selections, or full pages into clean Markdown. HTML to Markdown is a lightweight productivity extension designed to convert full web articles or highlighted text into clean, structured Markdown format complete with YAML frontmatter. Modern web pages are often filled with ads, navigation bars, popups, and complex HTML structures that pollute notes and waste token context in Large Language Models (LLMs). This extension strips away web clutter and extracts only the primary body content, converting standard HTML elements into standard Markdown syntax in under one second. Key Features One-Click Article Extraction: Utilizes the open-source Mozilla Readability engine to automatically remove advertisements, sidebars, and navigation footers, isolating the core article content. Text Selection Mode: Highlight specific text on any web page to convert only the selected portion. Ideal for saving targeted quotes, code blocks, or specific sections. Automated YAML Frontmatter: Prepends structured metadata including title, original source URL, and capture date (--- title: ... url: ... date: ... ---) to the top of every document for seamless integration with local file systems and note-taking apps. Instant Export Options: Copy the generated Markdown directly to your clipboard or download it as a sanitized .md file with a single click. Optimized for AI Workflows: Produces clean Markdown free of unnecessary HTML tags and inline CSS, reducing token consumption and improving readability when submitting context to ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or local LLMs. Privacy-First & Offline: All parsing and conversion are executed 100% locally within your browser. No page data, personal information, or URLs are ever tracked, logged, or transmitted to external servers. How to Use Navigate to any web page or article. Click the extension icon (or select specific text on the page first). Review the converted Markdown inside the popup window. Click "Copy to Clipboard" or "Download .md File".
