HTML5 introduced a variety of convenient features that many of us use
every day. As downloadable links aren’t something I work with very often,
I recently found out that you can use the download
attribute
on an <a>
element for much more than just making it
trigger a download. In fact, you can pass it a string value that will act
as the name of the downloadable file, effectively allowing you to
customize its name:
<!-- The downloaded file will be named 'June-2020.csv' -->
<a href="/data/2020/06/report.csv" download="June-2020.csv">June 2020</a>
