Outliner | Improving your reading experience

Tired of distractions on web pages, I created this extension that uses services that improve your reading experience.

Outliner | Enhance Web Reading Experience

Outliner is a Chrome extension geared towards a distraction-free reading experience. It redirects the active tab/link URL to a third-party service, which removes unwanted noise from the webpage. Currently, it employs the services of 12ft.io, Outline TTS, Print Friendly, and Darkread. The extension introduces an open page button in its options dialog for immediate access. Though the developer does not own or control these third-party services, this tool provides a single interface for availing their benefits.
