LinkHarvest is a powerful browser extension that helps you discover and download every file, image, video, and media item on any website. Simply point it at a page, and LinkHarvest will crawl same-site links to find content you might miss on the page alone.
LinkHarvest's philosophy: Crawl deep, discover everything, download in one go. No distractions, just efficient harvesting of web content.
- Crawl same-site links to discover files and media across multiple pages
- Configurable depth – control how deep the crawler goes (1-10 levels)
- File type discovery – find PDFs, images, videos, archives, and more
- Smart filtering – only harvest specific file types you're looking for
- Mass download all links from a single page
- Fast filtering with pattern matching
- Batch support for Metalink and Metalink4
- Export options – JSON, aria2, Metalink, or plain text
- Resume and retry failed downloads automatically
- Parallel connections for faster speeds
- Progress tracking with detailed statistics
- Queue management with priority controls
- Clean, intuitive design that gets out of your way
- Dark mode support for comfortable use
- Native tooltips and sounds for seamless integration
- Node.js (v16 or higher)
- pnpm package manager
- Python 3 ≥ 3.6 (for building release zips)
- web-ext (optional, for Firefox development)
