Buttondown Bookmarklet

The Buttondown Bookmarklet is a browser tool that lets you quickly save interesting links to a draft email in your Buttondown account. It's perfect for curating content for link roundups, newsletters, or keeping track of articles you want to share with your subscribers.

• One-click saving: Save any webpage to your Buttondown drafts with a single click
• Add notes: Include your thoughts or context about each link
• Automatic draft creation: Creates a "Bookmarked items" draft if one doesn't exist
• Works everywhere: Compatible with any website and modern browser
• Secure OAuth authentication: No API keys needed - uses secure OAuth flow

When you find an interesting link:

1. Click the bookmarklet in your bookmarks bar
2. Review the link details in the popup modal
3. Add notes (optional) about why this link is interesting
4. Click "Save Link" to add it to your draft

The link will be added to a draft email called "Bookmarked items" in your Buttondown account.

Links are saved in Markdown format:

Each new link is appended to the existing draft, creating a running list of your bookmarked items.

Look for an email draft titled "Bookmarked items" in your Buttondown dashboard. This draft is created automatically the first time you use the bookmarklet.
