About this extension
MD Capture lets you pick any element on a webpage — a paragraph, a table, an article, even an entire section — and turn it into clean Markdown with a few keystrokes. No more copy-pasting into online converters or hand-writing markup.
Enter capture mode and move through the DOM hierarchy with your keyboard:
-
-
-
- When selecting whole page, asks for confirmation before converting the whole page
Prefer the mouse? Toggle the crosshair button in the panel: hover to highlight, click to lock — just like the browser's element picker.
Markdown is copied to the clipboard automatically with a toast notification, followed by a floating action bar (8s): Open Preview (raw source in a new tab) and Download .md.
Everything runs locally in your browser. No data is collected, stored remotely, or sent anywhere. Permissions are minimal:
Interface languages: English, 中文.

- Highlighted element with a floating tag (tag, id, class) that follows scrolling
- A floating panel (draggable & resizable, remembers position/size) showing:
- a canvas thumbnail of all block-level elements drawn in document coordinates (doesn't shift when you scroll)
- breadcrumb path, tag / id / class, size, child count, empty state
- Keep or strip images, links, tables, code blocks
- Clean inline styles (unwrap
span/font), remove empty paragraphs - Heading style: keep original level / flatten to bold / force H2
- Local CSS filter: pick a parent element, then extract only the nodes matching your selector (e.g.
article p, .content img)
Markdown is copied to the clipboard automatically with a toast notification, followed by a floating action bar (8s): Open Preview (raw source in a new tab) and Download .md.
