The frame below runs the same code as this page, in the reader's own browser. Nothing is sent to us, and nothing is sent to you.

Pick a dark background and the text and panels follow it, so the frame stays readable on a dark page.

How it works

Inline, reference, and autolink forms are scanned; each occurrence records URL, visible text, title, and line where available. Duplicate URLs remain visible while unique URLs and hosts are counted.

  • Markdown and autolink forms cover common README links.
  • URLs are returned as written.

Worked example

Extract links from Markdown
Find all hyperlinks in a Markdown document
Input
											Check [our docs](https://docs.example.com) and [GitHub](https://github.com/org/repo).
Output
												Text      URL                          Title
--------  ---------------------------  -----
our docs  https://docs.example.com
GitHub    https://github.com/org/repo

When to use this

Documentation audits, domain migrations, and later link crawlers use extracted URLs.

Edge cases

  • Parentheses in a destination need balanced Markdown syntax.
  • Reference definitions can be far from their use and must be resolved globally.
  • Relative links have no hostname and remain local references.
