Extension Source Viewer

Extension Source Viewer is a handy tool that makes browsing the web even better! Over the last twenty years, we've all become super reliant on our browsers for both work and fun. Because of this, browser extensions have become super popular. They help us do everything from creating dark themes for websites to saving images and translating text.

Why Download Your Favorite Extensions?

Sometimes, things can go wrong with an extension. Maybe an update messed something up, or the developer decided to take it down. That’s why it's a smart move to download and keep your favorite extensions safe! This is where Extension Source Viewer comes in handy.

User-Friendly Access

Once you install the add-on, you'll see its icon pop up on the right side of your browser's address bar. It’s super easy to access! Just click it to save the extension's source code as a zip file for offline viewing or check it out right there using its built-in analysis window if you want a quick look.

An Organized Layout for Easy Inspection

This add-on has a cool dual-pane layout that lets you see the structure of the extension clearly. You can select files and preview them instantly. If there's any code you need for troubleshooting or personal projects, it's all neatly formatted for you to copy!

Check File Hashes for Safety

If you're downloading extension packages from different places, it's smart to check their hashes first. This way, you know that your files are genuine and safe!

Customizable Features for Your Workflow

The best part? Extension Source Viewer lets you customize how you use it! You can view an extension's source right from the right-click menu or change what happens when you click its icon in the address bar. It can directly download or preview extensions instead of showing a pop-up menu.

No Need for Extra Add-ons

If you're not often using all these features but still want access, there's an online web app version too! You won’t lose any functionality by going this route.

Easily Bookmark Offline Apps

If you're like many users who appreciate Extension Source Viewer’s fast dual-pane layout, feel free to bookmark its offline web app. It allows drag-and-drop of already downloaded extension packages!

Your Go-To Tool Across Browsers

No matter if you're inspecting older versions of extensions or preserving them in your collection, Extension Source Viewer might just be one of the best tools available out there! It works great with Firefox, Chrome, Opera—basically everywhere!
