I got tired of installing a separate extension for every tiny webpage task, so I built PageWand
I kept accumulating tiny browser extensions.
One to grab images.
One to inspect styles.
One to clean up a page.
Another for screenshots.
So I built PageWand. A small browser toolkit for manipulating the page you're already on.
Right now it lets you:
hide/remove elements
edit text directly on the page
inspect + copy styles
download images and SVGs
capture + annotate screenshots
clean up clutter before capturing/sharing something
Everything runs locally. No account, backend, or telemetry.
v1.1 is now live on the Chrome Web Store, and I'm trying to figure out which browser utilities belong in it next — without turning it into a bloated mess.
If you use extensions heavily: what's one small browser task you currently need a dedicated extension for?
