A GUI tool built in Powershell to help with embedding content onto Dev.To and other blogs
Use this tool to convert links from the list of embeddable sites to create a custom embed on DevTo blogs.
This is a tool that is essentially a reskin of the GIPHY Linker this time adding the code required around links to create a custom embed on DevTo blogs from the list found here DevTo Editor Guide
Included in the UI is a handy button called "Supported Sites" where you can use the full URL to embed content directly into your DevTo blog.
-
Download and run the DevToEmbedder.PS1 file
-
Go to one of the sites found in the custom embed section on this page DevTo Editor Guide or use the inbuilt list
- Click Share to get the full URL to the content or copy this from the address bar in your browser
- Paste the link into the box in DevToEmbedder
- Click 'Convert into DevTo Embed link' to create the HTML code for your custom embed
-
Use 'Copy HTML' to copy the link to your clipboard
-
Paste your HTML line of code into your blog like normal
-
Use 'Clear' to reset the form and start it up again
Please go ahead and follow me for more and feel free to comment on if this works for you, if you've found a way to make this process better or if there is anything in here that needs to be amended to make it flow better. I'd love to hear from anyone that has given this a try
