Full summary

Instapaper is a simple tool for saving web pages to read later on your iPhone, iPad, Android, computer, or Kindle.

This browser extension may be used in place of the bookmarklet to save articles directly into your Instapaper queue.

It works by saving the current tab to your Instapaper account . Users who aren't logged in will be taken to a login or signup page, after completing the process they will be redirected back to the original page with the original page saved in their queue.

This is an extension to clip websites and download them into a readable markdown file. Please keep in mind that it is not guaranteed to work on all websites.

To use this add-on, simply click the add-on icon while you are browsing the page you want to save offline. A popup will show the rendered markdown so you can make minor edits or copy the text, or you can click the download button to download an .md file. Selecting text will allow you to download just the selected text

Context Menus You can also right-click on pages, images, links and selections to copy or download snippets of Markdown. You can also download all tabs in a window as Markdown files
