File types
How each kind of file opens, and how to get at the raw bytes.
| Upload | Opens as |
|---|---|
| Code and text (about 70 languages) | Highlighted in your code theme, with line links like #L12 |
| Markdown | A rendered document; frontmatter shows as a properties list |
| HTML | The page, running in a sandboxed frame |
| CSV and TSV | A table with sticky headers |
| SVG | An image, rendered in a sandbox |
| Images | A centred preview |
| Video and audio | A player that seeks by byte range |
| The browser’s PDF viewer | |
| Zips and folders | A share page |
| Scrawl captures | A recording page |
| Anything else | A download page |
Markdown, HTML, CSV and SVG have a Source view at ?view=source. Every drop’s raw bytes are at /<slug>/<filename>, with ?download=1 to force a download. Raw HTML and SVG are always served as plain text or in a sandbox, so a drop can never run script on your domain.
The ... button in the top-right holds every action for a file. Right-click anywhere for the same actions as a pie menu.
