This is a Chrome extension to clip websites and download them into a readable markdown file. Please keep in mind that it is not guaranteed to work on all websites.
To use this add-on, simply click the add-on icon while you are browsing the page you want to save offline. A dialogue asks you where to save the generated markdown file.
It uses the following two libraries:
Readability.js by Mozilla in version from commit 52ab9b5c8916c306a47b2119270dcdabebf9d203. 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 v6.0.0 & turndown-plugin-gfm v1.0.2 by Dom Christie is used to convert the simplified HTML (from Readability.js) into markdown. (Licensed under MIT License).

データをmarkdown形式で保存しておきたい方にはとにかくおすすめしたい。
Generally it is ok, but the table capture seems has problem.
Simple, Easy
I use this with my Obsidian.
Actually if it can remember the last download folder it would be superb!
Don’t know why, but the file is not saved with .md extension. Also it has weird name like 1ed09c43-7787-4e32-92e4-dd9609778696. Can’t use it to effectively save files into the Obsidian\Articles folder. Would be nice if the saving folder also could be specified, so the files will be saved directly into Obsidian\Articles folder.
Wow. With this an Obsidian, my other note taking apps are quickly becoming obsolete.
Great work.
I’ve tried lots of extentions and this is the only one that works!!!! thank you very much!!!
Added markdown-clipper to Chrome recently and it has really improved my workflow. I use it to download and organize documentation and learning materials to read later. Would love to see markdown-clipper add the url of the clipped page somewhere in the saved file.
Great addition, thanks for the work.
Is it possible to implement page saving with title and extension .md?
For example:
title.md
