I misunderstood how this works. I thought you write Markdown in the editor. Then I realised my mistake and I applied some formatting in the editor. But the Markdown I got for this simple case looks broken (misses a few lines breaks I guess, and does not escape "#").
This was from Edge on Android. Although I don't think the browser is to blame here.
I will try to figure it out the solution.
Thanks for pointing out.
Najs work, we've got something similar in Magic Cloud, but on the server side, converting HTML to Markdown, preserving images, hyperlinks, the shebang. We built it to create higher quality RAG data during scraping ...
I want you to test the tool and let me know if there are any bugs in tool
Excellent work on the tool and well written journey!
Thanks, Honestly, I build it to make my writing here on Dev Community better and faster.
Recommended this App!
Thanks, but where?
Unfortunately didn't work for me. I pasted a few websites and it has major formatting issues. It did extract links and images correctly though.
I suggest you have a button that allows people to submit bugs, i.e, when you paste something it can send the input and the output then it can be debugged and improved because you get a test case of an issue.
Excellent Work
