Android SDK Search

Adds an 'ad' Omnibox command and 'view source' links for the Android SDK

What is Android SDK Search?
Android SDK Search is a Chrome extension built to optimize workflows by enabling swift access to Android SDK documentation and classes. With an ‘ad’ command functionality incorporated in the Omnibox, developers can find class names in the Android SDK with ease. Additionally, it adds a ‘view source’ feature on the developer.android.com SDK class pages for streamlined inspection of source files on android.googlesource.com.

Summary

This very simple extension does two things:

  1. Adds an 'ad' command to the Chrome Omnibox. For example, typing 'ad ViewGro' will bring up a list of all class names in the Android SDK matching 'ViewGro'—selecting a list item navigates to the relevant Android SDK Reference URL on developer.android.com.

  2. Adds a 'view source' link next to the SDK class name for class reference pages on developer.android.com. Clicking this link navigates to the relevant source file on android.googlesource.com.

Sorry for marking it two stars. Looks like the app is not maintained anymore and not working [17 feb 2022]. Past reviews are two years old. So, recording it here.
