   Glad you found it useful. I had sort of neglected it for a while, but during the course of the lockdown, I have started working on a major rewrite - replacing Gulp with Webpack, adding support for Edge, etc. Will release it soon :)

   I've used this for building the browser extensions for my app [1]. It is simple, easy to understand and easy to reason with. However, I would recommend this only for small apps. As soon as your app's features/complexity incre

    Good idea! I am always happy to see more tools come up around the email inbox. Few suggestions - 1. Your privacy page is empty. 2. Instead of asking me to enter a feed URL during signup, you could just start with the email, and then on the
