Web Clipper Browser Extension with Automatic Content Extraction, Now Open Source
Hi HN, a few months ago I started building a suite of knowledge management tools to for my own needs. It's been a long iterative process of noticing patterns (and inefficiencies) in my workflow, building simple tools to improve it, and evolving the UX over time.<p>One of the tools I have been using daily is a web clipper that captures not just the current page, but can automatically extract key information from it. You can also do a quick lookup of your existing notes regardless which web page you are on.<p>Prior to this, I had been using web clipper extensions by Evernote, OneNote, and Notion, and all of them had something missing that would significantly slow me down. Wanted to share what I have built to address this. The code is integrated with the [Rumin](<a href="https://getrumin.com" rel="nofollow">https://getrumin.com</a>) backend (the other tools I built), but you can easily swap out the API calls to point to local storage or some other endpoint.<p>Check it out. Would love to hear feedback from the community :)
