## Description

Copy This Block is a powerful Chrome extension that simplifies copying web page content like tables, sample code, paragraphs, and lists. Instead of manual and precise selections, users can select any part of a block and use the context menu or keyboard shortcut to copy entire blocks cleanly and efficiently.

The extension intelligently extends your selection to the nearest block boundary and cleans up copied content by removing unnecessary whitespace, empty elements, and formatting tables into CSV. This ensures smooth pasting into spreadsheets, code editors, or word processors without extra formatting adjustments. It supports copying within frames after requesting temporary permissions and provides fallback options to regular copy commands for restricted environments. With Copy This Block, copying complex web content becomes faster and more accurate.
