Browser extensions are underrated: the promise of hackable software
I made this extension fully using chatGPT to diagnose some layout issues. It’s super simple but chatGPT was definitely useful setting up the chrome boilerplate (and commenting what each option meant). Make sure you ask it to target the most recent version, they recently changed (to v3?) and it seems chatGPT prefers writing for the old version.

How do you "compile" the bookmarklets? I know of https://bookmarkl.ink/ but then we're back trusting some third-party service again. I get that it's not rocket science, but this is definitively a small hurdle to overcome.

Wait, What's a Bookmarklet?
Hi! Agreed re: advantages of gist/git backing. Comments and gist history via GitHub add a lot of value for free. The tool also allows bookmarklet creators to write in modern, un-obfuscated JS as there are transpilation, minification, and IIFE wrapping applied to the bookmarklet.
The security risk angle is also a concern I share. If you take a look at the disclaimer at the bottom of my project README [1], you'll see this exact issue mentioned. Versioning gists and thus bookmarklets is discussed in the same document [2]. This locks bookmarklet source to a specific commit of the git repo underlying a gist.
