Extension summary

Don't want to miss the chance to spectate the Chess World Champion live, or any other of your favorite players ? LiNotify enables you to "follow" certain LiChess users by visiting their lichess.org profiles and clicking on the LiNotify icon. Whenever the followed user comes online or starts playing LiNotify will trigger a system notification to alert you of the fact. Additionally LiNotify shows you if any user statuses changed (came online/started playing), since you last checked, by displaying a number bellow the extension icon in the browser.

Notification appearance and sound are entirely operating system dependent. In the extension options you can further control what notifications you would like to receive for certain users.

You want to contribute to LiNotify? Awesome! Check out the extension on github at https://github.com/mpunkenhofer/linotify
