Show HN: GitBook Documentation Downloader for LLMs

[amaldavid]

I built a tool that converts GitBook docs into LLM-friendly markdown files. Perfect for feeding technical documentation into ChatGPT, Claude, or custom LLaMA models. GitHub: https://github.com/Amal-David/gitbook-downloader Key features:

Downloads complete GitBook documentation sites Converts to clean markdown format Web interface for easy URL input Works with ChatGPT, Claude, and other LLMs Preserves document structure and internal links [Still some bugs here, need to fix it]

Will publish a hosted version if there is enough interest.

Ideal for:

Training custom LLMs with technical docs Building knowledge bases for AI assistants Quick reference docs in AI chat context windows

Looking for feedback, especially from those working with LLMs/AI. What other documentation platforms should I support?

Interesting approach! While converting docs to markdown works, I've found that technical documentation (especially for complex repos) needs more than just text conversion for effective LLM consumption.

The key challenge is preserving repository context - like code dependencies, architectural decisions, and evolution patterns. Have others experimented with knowledge graph approaches for maintaining these relationships when processing repos for LLMs?
