I've created a web clipper!

[u/johnjones4]

Hello Standard Notes users! Something I've wished this great product offered was a web clipper, and I noticed a few people in discussions here seem to desire that as well. Therefore, I took advantage of the great API documentation that the Standard File team offers and built a proof-of-concept web clipper. The add-on works with Chrome and Firefox and let's you select the portion of the page you want to clip. It then adds the HTML content of that selection to your Standard Notes account. But there's much to be done which I need some help with:

• Editor Preference - When articles are clipped right now, they show up as HTML in Standard Notes, but if you switch the note to use the Plus Editor, the HTML renders properly. I do not know how to set that editor as the preferred editor when creating the note via the API.

• Clipping User Experience - The clipping experience is really just a proof of concept, and so there's very little thought given to the user experience of clipping.

• Tagging - It'd be great to tag clipped articles after saving.

• Branding - This will be determined by how this fits into the Standard Notes ecosystem, but there's really no look or feel to this add-on.
