It looks like you're US-based but if you refer to Commonwealth case law on occasion, do check out this other legal extension: https://clerkent.huey.xyz
This is so great! An excellent tool that addresses an important issue. I would be interested in a post that covers the experience of coding and creating a browser extension, as it's something I've never played with but probably should.
Thanks! Luckily, the coding was pretty straightforward. I might be able to do a longer post about this later, but in the meantime, I've put up the code here if you want to play around with it: https://github.com/njyoon/legiblii.
I started by going through the Chrome tutorial at https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/mv3/getstarted/ to figure out the basics (i.e., how to set up the manifest, how to declare permissions) and then looked at the documentation at https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/reference/ to figure out which APIs I needed to insert the CSS. There are some other guides online that can help further explain how the Chrome extensions work, but I'd just be careful not to get sidetracked by the guides using an older Manifest version (so, anything pre-2021). Finally, I used the guide at https://developer.chrome.com/docs/webstore/publish/ to publish it to the web store. It took about a week for Google to approve the extension.
