Gave it a spin and it feels really polished! Since you offered... I'm curious about the rendering technology behind it. I'm working on a web app with a spreadsheet interface, and I'm using a standard canvas-rendered grid. You

Cool idea and onboarding experience. I spun up Chrome to demo it, and although its got the rough edges of a prototype, the potential is there. I created a rule to remove thumbnails and shorts from YouTube, and after a few failed attempts, i

Love the concept and design. Where are repositories stored and do you use any sort of backup or replication?

Sqorn author here. Sqorn doesn't use tagged template literals to be cool. It uses them to make writing SQL flexible, secure and intuitive. You can write: const boy = sq.from`person`.where`age < ${7} and gender = ${'male}` to pr

It works well and I like the overall design. Why'd you make it? The default keyboard shortcuts are a little awkward; using tab or the up/down arrows to navigate the list would be more intuitive. Also, it would be easier to disting

It's really cool to see the applications made possible by the high quality, reasonably priced, and fairly licensed text-to-speech APIs offered by AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. The most fleshed out service of this type that I've fo

Keylogging is just the beginning. Any (and many) browser extensions have the ability to record everything you do on every page you visit. All it takes is specifying the <all_urls> permission in the extension’s manifest and adding som

Great work. It’s a pleasure to use. A few questions: 1. Have you heard of Narro (narro.co)? It does the same thing, but it’s been around longer and has many integrations. 2. Can you share the tech stack currently powering your voice synthes

Looking forward to this update. I wonder if it will be possible to load scripts into the reader view document. Currently, it isn’t, so keybinding extensions, which rely on inserting Keyboard event listeners, don’t work in reader view. I had

This is unfortunately true, though it doesn’t have to be. The problem with webapps generated with JavaScript is that it’s tempting to create a custom implementation of built-in functionality. Good old anchor tags are “visible” to screen rea

Far as I can tell, no. I'm open to adding an emacs profile to Saka Key. It's as easy as modifying this JSON file: https://github.com/lusakasa/saka-key/blob/master/src/options...

My understanding is that if they do implement an API, they want it to be better than the status quo, not the same.

What happens when two extensions try to place a widget in the same location? Chaos. Not that the status quo is any better. Interestingly, Firefox's sidebar API only allows a single sidebar to be shown.

An extension overlay API would have saved me so much pain when building Saka (saka.io). There are two options for injecting UI today: 1. Inject UI directly into the document 2. Inject an iframe containing the UI into the document Both rely

Just wanted to mention, one of the unique features of Saka Key is that it lets you define keybinding profiles that are easy to switch between, and there are multiple profiles built in, including one that mimics Vimium. The address bar autof

I think site-specific keyboard shortcuts are great. Do you have plans to release the source code? My chrome extension Saka Key [1] provides generic keyboard shortcuts, but my vision is to eventually integrate with other extensions like your

Very cool to see my own extensions indexed there. I have an obfuscated closed-source extension that I accidentally released with source maps in early versions. Guess I'll have to be more careful next time.

Thanks! I was very surprised a half-decent in-window tab search extension didn't already exist. They all opened in the popup or a new window. So I made one myself. My goal is to make a complete Omnibar/tabs replacement so I can br

I've been building a keybinding Chrome extension like Vimium for about half a year now. It started when I struggled to add a feature to Vimium and figured I could do it better myself. From my biased perspective, my extension is better.

For my extension Saka Key ( https://github.com/lusakasa/saka-key ), I decided to use the browser.* APIs on both Chrome and Firefox using Mozilla's web extensions polyfill. https://github.com/mozilla&

Awesome job with the extension! I think the idea has great potential. Judging from my five minute test drive, you could probably increase adoption if you made it 'discoverable'. It's hard to determine what to do once it'

I showed my 9-year-old nephew Scratch, and within an hour he had designed a dancing man that made noise and moved around. It makes creating interactive games and stories easy and fun. Why isn't there a Scratch for adults? A serious too
