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
PDF 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.
