Hi, I've created an web extension that can find the page you want from your browser's history, bookmarks and tabs.
In this article, I will explain how to use this web extension.
Features
An extension with the following features
- Incremental search across history, bookmarks, and currently open tabs
- Click and enter to move to the target.
- Smooth operation with keyboard shortcuts
The name of this extension is cikamichi.
The Japanese meaning of chikamichi is a shorter way.
All processing is done within the browser. No history data will be sent to the any server.
