# Markdown

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Markdown is a lightweight markup language for creating formatted text.

Why it's different

You've tried a clipper before.
It broke the tables.

Most clippers flatten the parts that matter — tables collapse, code loses its language, math turns to broken text. Clipper keeps them intact, converted right in your browser. Nothing uploaded.

01

Tables survive

Wikipedia infoboxes with rowspan / colspan come through as real GFM tables — not a wall of run-together text.

02

Math stays math

KaTeX and MathML render to $…$ / $$…$$ so equations land readable in your notes, not as broken glyphs.

03

Code keeps its language

Fenced blocks keep their language hint and indentation — ```ts stays ```ts, never collapsed to plain text.

04

Your page never leaves your machine

AI clippers ship every page to their servers to "clean" it. Clipper never does — extraction runs in your browser, on the live DOM. Nothing is uploaded to be processed and sent back.

05

One keystroke

Bind a shortcut and clip without touching the mouse. The popup remembers your last destination and format.

06

Frontmatter that's yours

Title, URL, date, source, tags — emitted as YAML you control, ready for Dataview queries the moment it lands.

What's free — all of it

Five destinations. Zero accounts.

Every destination below ships in the free edition. Pick where a clip lands; Clipper remembers it next time.

Clip destinations compared by whether they work offline and what each is best for.
DestinationWorks offlineBest for
Local folder
File System Access API
Yes Obsidian & Logseq vaults. Files write straight into the folder you pick once — no sync server in the loop.
Clipboard
System clipboard
Yes Piping into an LLM. Clip an article and paste clean Markdown straight into a ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini context window.
.md download
Browser download
Yes One-off saves. A plain .md file in your Downloads — drag it anywhere, archive it, send it on.
Obsidian
obsidian:// URI
Yes A specific vault + folder. Hands the clip to Obsidian via its URI scheme — append, create, or route by template.
GitHub Gist Pro
Authenticated API
Needs network Shareable, versioned snippets. Pushes the clip to a secret or public Gist — the one destination that, by nature, talks to a server.

Four of five destinations work with your network cable unplugged. Only Gist — a publishing target — needs to reach out.

The fidelity problem

See exactly what survives.

Toggle between how a clip looks rendered and the raw Markdown source it writes to disk. Both are lossless.

Pro

Optional · one-time

If you live in your vault all day.

The free edition is the whole product. Pro is a tip for the power-user minority who clip dozens of pages a day — and a way to keep the lights on.

  • GitHub Gist destination — push clips to secret or public Gists, versioned.
  • Co-located images — download referenced images next to the .md, with rewritten relative links.
  • Unlimited batch — clip every open tab in one shot; free caps the batch size.
  • Multi-vault routing — keep separate folders per project and switch between them.

Reference-mode images don't render in macOS Preview — switch to Base64 inline if you need fully-offline files. We'd rather tell you than surprise you.

Honest by construction

Open where it counts.

No analytics, no telemetry

Clipper makes no network calls except the destination you choose. There's no usage pixel, no error beacon, no "anonymous" stats. Verify it in the source.

MIT-licensed free edition

The free edition is open source under MIT. Under the hood: Defuddle extraction + Turndown/GFM conversion — the same open-source engines, audited in our source. Read it, fork it, see exactly what touches the page you're clipping.

Trade-offs in the open

We document the sharp edges — reference vs. inline images, what each destination can and can't do offline — instead of hiding them behind a "Pro" wall.

Reviews · TBD

The extension is pending its first Chrome Web Store review cycle. When real ratings and quotes exist, they'll live here — we won't invent testimonials to fill the space.
