Extension summary

Analyze keywords

Minimal, light-weight, open-source extension for implementing the somewhat "hidden" formatting options in Letterboxd, similar to those in the official mobile app. It also implements the ability to preview your formatted post before submitting.

The formatting tags can be inserted using the on-screen buttons, or using the following keyboard shortcuts:

Bold: (Cmd/Ctrl) + b
Italic: (Cmd/Ctrl) + i
Hyperlink: (Cmd/Ctrl) + Shift + l
Quote: (Cmd/Ctrl) + Shift + k

Formatting tags will automatically wrap a selected area of text. Otherwise, the tags will be inserted at the caret position. Keyboard shortcuts can be disabled in the extension options.

High quality extension, ran into some trouble with a Letterboxd update but it's all fixed now. Idk why Letterboxd hasn't done this themselves. Very good app.
