Features & Capabilities

Codext harnesses the power of the Monaco Editor by dynamically inserting it into code webpages. In addition to standard editor features such as syntax highlighting, section folding and code formatting, this extension allows users to interact with documents and export changes locally.

Codext will help you out with the following tasks: ● displaying code from online file systems or repositories. ● opening and viewing local files in your browser. ● prettifying API responses (e.g. GET requests returning YAML). ● making quick changes to files and downloading those changes locally. ● viewing GitLab/Bitbucket raw files in a proper editor. ● and any use-case you can think of!

Head over to the official repository for more information (https://github.com/bbc/codext) and feel free to give us feedback!

Note: the extension is packaged from the BBC's open source Codext repository (Apache 2.0), but this non official distribution is not endorsed by the organisation.

Is Codext Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Codext requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Codext has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
