New Feature: GitHub README to PDF
March 3, 2025
By Frank Strube
We recently launched a new feature for premium subscribers that allows you to open the README.md of any GitHub repository with one click. This makes it easy to convert a GitHub README to PDF with minimal effort.
It's super simple. Take a look at the screencast below to see how it works.
Simply click File > Open repository ... and type the name of the repository into the dialog that appears. The repository's README.md
file will be loaded into the Markdown editor.
It's worth noting that this will only work for public repositories. Private repositories are not support at this time.
There's more in the pipeline...
We're only barely scratching the surface. Stay tuned for more updates from the SlickPDF team.
