Webpage to Markdown
Built around the idea of a Second Brain, the knowledge management system developed by Tiago Forte, this tool captures web content directly into an Obsidian vault without leaving the browser. Tools like Pocket or Raindrop are great for bookmarking, but they felt too heavy for what I wanted. I was looking for something more direct: read something, save it, it’s in my vault.
Webpage to Markdown is a system made of two components: a Chrome extension and an Obsidian plugin. The extension extracts article content using Readability and converts it to Markdown via Turndown, then sends it as structured JSON to a local HTTP server. The Obsidian plugin runs that server and writes the incoming content as .md files into the vault, organized by domain and enriched with YAML frontmatter.
