DownMark extracts web articles and converts them to clean Markdown files. This Safari extension intelligently filters ads and clutter, preserving only essential content with proper formatting for knowledge workers.

Congrats! Markdown conversion is like that intern who’s great with the basics but trips up on anything fancy — dynamic stuff, tricky layouts, or interactive bits often don’t survive the jump. How do you plan to handle these complex web elements so users don’t end up with broken or incomplete Markdown?

@vouchy This tool was designed to preserve knowledge articles, and Markdown files inherently focus on text and images rather than dynamic content, complex layouts, or interactive elements. To handle these limitations, we prioritize robust conversion of core content—text, headings, lists, and images—ensuring they translate accurately into Markdown. For complex web elements, we aim to gracefully degrade them: dynamic content is captured as static text where possible, intricate layouts are simplified into clean, readable structures, and interactive components are either represented as static placeholders or linked references. For richer functionality, we recommend users directly save the HTML itself or print the content to PDF to preserve complex elements.
@morphinewan Hey! Congrats on going live, upvoted, we launched today as well and your feedback would help.

Amazing tool for markdown conversion. Good thing is that it doesn't require any login or signup.
Congrats on the launch!

Congrats team! only wish: let me assign a global hotkey so I can clip while the mouse is on the other monitor. Otherwise flawless; if you live in Markdown, this is the missing link :)

@cruise_chen Since the main component is a Safari Extension and considering Apple's sandbox restrictions, implementing a true global hotkey is not straightforward. I’ll look into adding an in-browser keyboard shortcut for web pages in a future release to see if that might work.

Whoa, this is exactly what I needed! Copying clean Markdown from messy web pages always takes me forever—can’t wait to shave off all that annoying formatting time. Is browser integration coming soon?

@joey_zhu_seopage_ai DownMark is a Safari extension—what exactly do you mean by “browser integration”? I’m not sure I follow.
Been waiting for something like this, Safari Markdown tools are so rare. Just tried it on a messy blog and it cleaned it up beautifully. Super handy for saving dev articles.
