  • violentmonkey

    Violentmonkey provides userscripts support for browsers. It works on browsers with WebExtensions support.

  • I recognize that I may be contributing to your "addons have so much power" argument, but I wanted to draw your attention to ViolentMonkey <https://github.com/violentmonkey/violentmonkey#readme> which is stellar for these site-specific customizations (known as User Scripts, of which Greasemonkey was the most famous)

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  • elos-connect

    Customizable "toolbox" browser plugin (Firefox first), with a focus on collection, search, and transform of browser data.

  • Ive had a side project going for a few years to modularize this exact type of middleware for the browser's WebExtension (and WebAPI) capabilities.

    Curious to see if anyone else is able to find use cases for the components/sidebar and urlbar CLI I've been building.
