Browser extension for easy bookmarking or reviewing

[nileshtrivedi]

Create a Chrome/Brave/Web extension for easily adding a link and/or review. This tutorial could be a good starting point: https://developers.chrome.com/extensions/getstarted

[nileshtrivedi]

• Extension should add a button in the toolbar. Upon clicking, it should show a pop-up with a form (if the user is logged in learnawesome.org). If user is not logged in, then it should prompt the user to login.
• Before rendering the form, the extension should check whether the URL of the current tab is already added in LearnAwesome as a Link for an Item.
• If yes, then the form should show the topic and format for that item, and the reviews. The user won't need to visit learnawesome.org just to see the reviews for a link. In addition, the pop-up should show a form where user can add her own review with notes.
• If no, then the form should show fields for both item AND user's review. The latter can be collapsed by default just like on the website.
• For certain well-known domains like GoodReads, YouTube etc, the item-type should be pre-filled (eg: "Book", "Video", "Chat" etc.).

The idea is to make it very easy to add and fetch learnawesome data. Visit to website should only be needed for things like advanced search or personalized dashboard etc.
