Extension summary

➡️ What is a Bang?

Citing DuckDuckGo, who first introduced them back in 2008:

"Bangs are shortcuts that quickly take you to search results on other sites. For example, when you know you want to search on another site like Wikipedia or Amazon, our bangs get you there fastest. A search for '!w filter bubble' will take you directly to Wikipedia."

➡️ How does the extension work

Simply install the extension and use any of the supported Kagi Bangs (see https://kbe.smaertness.net/). Bangs can be used at the beginning or at the end of the query, e.g.:

• !gm here to closest restaurant • here to closest restaurant !gm

Bangs can also be triggered without any query, serving as a bookmark shortcut:
