Features

• Ability to copy links, images, and selected text as Markdown.

• Formatted text such as italic, bold, strike-through, and inline code.
• Unordered and ordered lists, with task lists support.
• Tables, with respect to GFM.
• Fenced code blocks, with language detection using info strings.

Note: When copying links and images, Chrome doesn’t let you extract images alt text or anchors text content to be used in Markdown, instead the links themselves are used as link title. Firefox doesn’t have this limitation though.

1. contextMenus: to show option when right-clicking.
2. activeTab: to be able to access content on page.
3. clipboardWrite: to be able to write data to clipboard (we still can’t read from your clipboard).
