Auto Highlight - A Chrome Extension for Highlighting Key Contents

'Auto Highlight' is a Chrome extension specifically designed to identify and highlight key content in online article pages. It helps in tackling 'too long; didn't read' instances by offering a summary-highlight of the article. Just click the highlighter icon, and important sections of the content will be highlighted, making it easier to absorb crucial information. It uses a comprehensive algorithm to identify these sections, and the developer is open to improving the technique with user input. Notably, the extension respects user privacy and does not collect or distribute any user data.

Open source and Free. Awesome. Giving 5 starts because of the efforts. Also add support for local files.
