LinkToMarkdown – Extract web content to clean Markdown in one click

Hi! I recently created a little tool called LinkToMarkdown (](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…

    My partner usually writes substack posts which I then mirror to our website’s blog section. To automate this, I made a simple tool to scrape the post and clean it so that I can drop it to our blog easily. This might be useful to others as well. Oh and ofcourse you can instruct GPT to make any final edits :D

    Hey HN! I originally built “html-to-markdown” back in 2018 (while still in high school) to handle complex HTML conversions where other libraries struggled. Now, I’ve released v2 — a complete rewrite designed to handle even more edge cases. It supports entire websites with a high accuracy. Example use: I’ve used it in my RSS reader to strip HTML down to clean Markdown, similar to the "Reader Mode" in your Browser. It can be used as a Golang package or as an CLI. Give it a try & tell me what edge cases you encounter!
