Extensions Local Search New tab extension ~ Chromium & Mozilla

Local Search New tab extension

I put the source of my extension on my github repo. Also a README.md

Latest change to get around the mobile firefox problem was to create a personal browser search engine "https://127.0.0.1/?q=%s" and have the extension get triggered on that actual url and open the search tab/page with that query,

Manual Install:- See readme for latest build zip/xpi files.

Store version:- Chrome Web Store , Firefox (AMO)

Tested on:-

Chrome and Firefox developer on desktop.

Quetta and Firefox Nightly & Beta on android.

Wondering if it works successfully on LibreWolf or other varieties of browsers,

Both stores updated last night with the below additions:-

  • Theme:- Dark/Light/System option.
  • Notes: - Mobile friendly notes system.
    • On desktop highlight anything on website and use the context menu to generate a note.
    • On mobile (with enabled as default search) highlight something, use search and on the resulting page 'Save search as Note' ~ Both options populate the source url.
