Saka Key
Saka Key is a Chrome and Firefox extension for keyboard-only web browsing. It differs from existing extensions because
-
Its state machine architecture is modular, extensible, and SIMPLE. Its design is inspired by my frustration trying to make sense of the scattered state, confusing event handling, and dubious design of similar extensions.
-
It's not Vim. Aesthetics matter and graphical menus takes preference over text configuration. It's friendly to non-developers. You shouldn't need a tutorial, but there is one.
-
It's engineered for configurability. Developers define options with JSON. This JSON is used to generate the Options Page. Changes to options automatically propagate to all tabs. Options are organized into profiles, which are easy to switch between. Sensible default profiles are built-in. Options can be exported and imported.
-
It's built with modern tools: ES6+, Webpack, Preact.
Saka Key lacks some features other extensions have today, but it has the foundation to reinvent and recreate them better than ever.
Also, read the Saka Key Handbook and try my in-progress search bar/tabs replacement extension Saka.
