linkedin2md — v0.7.1

Convert LinkedIn data exports to clean Markdown files - the ideal format for LLM analysis.

Why Markdown?

Markdown is the lingua franca of AI tools. Once your LinkedIn data is in .md format, you can:

• Upload to NotebookLM and have conversations about your career history
• Use Claude Projects to analyze patterns across your professional journey
• Feed to Obsidian with AI plugins for a personal career knowledge base
• Run local LLMs (Ollama, LM Studio) for completely private analysis

Installation

Recommended (using pipx - installs in isolated environment):

pipx install linkedin2md

Or with pip (in a virtual environment):

pip install linkedin2md

Note: On modern Linux systems (Debian, Ubuntu 23.04+, Fedora), use pipx to avoid the "externally-managed-environment" error.

Usage

linkedin2md Complete_LinkedInDataExport.zip
linkedin2md export.zip -o ./my-profile
linkedin2md export.zip --lang es
linkedin2md export.zip --pdf  # Generate beautiful PDF CV alongside Markdown files

Then drag the output folder into your favorite AI tool.
