Wow, this is amazing. Seems like magic once I wonderstood what it does.

Like others here, at first I thought it was just another pastebin. I didn't realize what it could do until I read your comment here in this thread. Seems dumb, but I didn't notice I could scroll down for examples, and I also would have had no idea about the browser extension. I would have dismissed this almost immediately had I just visited the page. Perhaps you can make this things more obvious?

Also, any plans for a Firefox extension?

Note: "Wonderstood" was a typo, but I'm leaving it because I like it :)




Point taken and thanks for the positivity! Had been balancing utility and explanation, and can swing more a little to the latter.

Yes Firefox shouldn't be too hard, I don't use anything too Chrome specific, and I have built extensions for FF and Safari prior (wink wink).


[this is an explicit upvote re: Firefox extension]



Firefox extension out soon: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/context-ctxt-...

It was harder that I thought, lots of quirks and behavioral differences even though the APIs used were relatively simple. Needed for example `e.preventDefault()`, requiring `<all_urls>` (unfortunately! - but that might allow me to allow copying styles from selection) and a bunch of style fixes just to get to parity.


I also came to the comments for examples because I didn't realize there was anything below the fold, FWIW
