Usage

1. Open the Google Classroom stream in your browser

3. Open the browser console (F12) and paste the following code:

Array.from(document.querySelectorAll("a"))
    .filter((a) => a.getAttribute("aria-label") ?? "".startsWith("Attachment:"))
    .map((a) => {
        const url = a.getAttribute("href");
        if (!URL.canParse(url)) {
            return null;
        }

        return { link: url, title: a.getAttribute("title") };
    })
    .filter((a) => a !== null && a.title !== null);

4. Save the output to a JSON file
5. Run the download script:
