8 Chrome extensions I use as a developer

There are many great chrome extensions out there on the chrome web store. And these are the few extensions that I use on daily basis.

  • Bitwarden

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/bitwarden-free-password-m/nngceckbapebfimnlniiiahkandclblb?hl=en-US&utm_source=chrome-ntp-launcher

It is one of the best password managers and I use it for storing my password, and some confidential notes etc.

  • Notion Web clipper

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/notion-web-clipper/knheggckgoiihginacbkhaalnibhilkk?hl=en-US&utm_source=chrome-ntp-launcher

I have been in many situations when I need to bookmark pages/articles. I use notion web clipper instead. I just add that page to my links database. It even saves the page contents in notion directly so I dont even need to visit that site afterwards

  • Amino live css editor

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/amino-css-editor/pbcpfbcibpcbfbmddogfhcijfpboeaaf?hl=en-US&utm_source=chrome-ntp-launcher

I really like to customise webpages according to my own preference and system theme. This extension helps me do that.

  • DuckDuckGo privacy essentials

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/duckduckgo-privacy-essent/bkdgflcldnnnapblkhphbgpggdiikppg?hl=en-US&utm_source=chrome-ntp-launcher

I have came across sites that ask for email for verification or for newsletters. So I just give a newly created email (@duck.com) and it forwards to my main email. I can even reply to it through that email. And if I feel like its spamming my inbox , I can just disable that email.

  • OSlash

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/oslash/gpljeioabgadbidbkcbhjjglpinfhmal?hl=en-US&utm_source=chrome-ntp-launcher

I have started to use this very recently. The best way to describe it will be a speed dial for internet. You can create o-links for the most important pages/ documents that you visit everyday or frequently. After that you can directly go to it by typing o/<short-name> . Its really handy

  • Slapdash

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/slapdash/knjkgoighhalckigihppnlnhekplefmd?hl=en-US&utm_source=chrome-ntp-launcher

This is also a very useful extension. It indexes all you documents and important files from many different services like notion, google docs, google drive etc and provides a single search for all of them.

  • Sponsorblock

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/sponsorblock-for-youtube/mnjggcdmjocbbbhaepdhchncahnbgone?hl=en-US&utm_source=chrome-ntp-launcher

This is a really time saving extension, it can automatically skip all the sponsor segment/end credits/intro etc in a youtube video.

  • octotree

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/octotree-github-code-tree/bkhaagjahfmjljalopjnoealnfndnagc?hl=en-US&utm_source=chrome-ntp-launcher

This extension is really useful if you use github regularly. It basically adds a code-tree like layout to github.
