Wikipedia Lists

Browser extension to use Wikipedia’s Reading Lists, just like in the apps

Install

Context

The year was 2018 and Wikipedia released Synced reading lists for its mobile apps, but what about the Browser and Desktop? 5 years later, the official extension remains pretty minimalist.

I have found Wikipedia’s Reading Lists to be a wonderful way to organize research. And not being able to manage them on my main work device was the primary motivation for developing the extension. And I truly hope this extension can be useful to other people as well.

Principles

  • Full-featured, the extension aims to cover all features from mobile apps, and possibly go further.
  • Privacy-friendly, no information is stored anywhere by extension’s domains.
  • Fair user experience, the extension follows the Wikipedia’s Design Style Guide.
