Copy as Markdown
Browser extension to copy hyperlinks, images, and selected text as Markdown
Features:
The extension allows you to copy selected text on a page as Markdown with support for features including the following
- Ability to copy links, images, and selected text as Markdown.
- Linked images, will have options to individually select link or images.
- Formatted text such as Italic, bold, strike-through, and inline code.
- Unordered and ordered lists, with task lists support.
- Tables, with respect to GFM.
- Fenced code blocks, with language detection using info strings.
Note: When copying links and images, Chrome doesn’t let you extract images alt text or anchors text content to be used in Markdown, instead the links themselves are used as link title. Firefox doesn’t have this limitation though.
Permissions:
The extension requires the following permission from you for working.
1. `contextMenus`: to show option when right-clicking.
2. `activeTab`: to be able to access content on page.
The extension can only write to your clipboard and not read from it in any way.

Good
I believe the issue lies on Notion's side, as it doesn't work properly with Notion. I’d like to request that the developer add a menu option such as "Copy for Notion."
Instead of copying md performs simple copy action
It tried copy using the Context Menu but it simply copies the HTML. I am trying to copy an HTML table from a Gmail Message. It doesn't work as intended
Doesn't work. all it does is stick "copy as markdown" into the clipboard.
Does nothing. Nothing on the clipboard
Tried "Copy selection as markdown", nothing is added to the Clipboard
I just now tried the extension. Made a selection and used the context menu to copy as markdown, the clipboard is not changed and effectively the extension does nothing.
simple and effective. thanks!
Installed in chrome then pinned the icon. When I click on the icon, it opens a github page where the extension code lives. So it's useless.
Works like a charm
Works great!
thank you, it works and saved a lot of time
this is so great. work perfectly to parse the href and link
Exactly what I want it to do.
Excellent. Works very well. Successfully captures tables in Markdown. And pretty much anything else I’ve thrown at it. I’m using it for capturing snippets for pasting into Markdown based editors / tools (such as in Noteplan, Logseq, and Obsidian)

It lacks ability to copy current page link as markdown with title as text!

It would be better if can convert HTML LaTex content to markdown LaTex.
