By

More flour than flavour. There's a bagel in here, just not much of one.
Summary
idmly is a tool that converts HTML/CSS designs into native, editable Adobe InDesign (.idml) files. Created by someone who builds multi-page reports for clients, it solves the pain point of manually rebuilding HTML layouts in InDesign. The tool preserves real text frames, named paragraph styles, and editable vector charts—unlike a flattened PDF. It works with any CSS framework, offers the first two pages free, and has a $49 lifetime pricing model with no subscription.
