A collection of awesome browser extensions for GitHub.
Open-Awesome is built by the community, for the community. Submit a project, suggest an awesome list, or help improve the catalog on GitHub.
Installs, stars, and last update dates are refreshed daily, providing current data on extension popularity and maintenance status.
Users can submit new extensions via GitHub Issues without coding, lowering barriers for community input as described in the README.
Lists extensions for Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari, and Opera, ensuring broad compatibility across major browsers.
Offers a dedicated website with additional filter options, enhancing discovery beyond the static GitHub README.
Aggregates dozens of GitHub-specific extensions, saving time compared to searching scattered browser stores or blogs.
The list relies on metrics like install counts but lacks user reviews or security vetting, leaving risk assessment to users.
Some extensions show 'n/a' for last updates or very low installs, indicating possible abandonment despite daily refreshes.
It's a fixed list without personalized recommendations, making it harder to find tools tailored to individual workflows.
New additions rely on user submissions via issues, which could slow down updates if community engagement wanes.
