GitHub URL Swapper

Jump between GH repo and GH Pages URLs

Features & Capabilities

Click the extension when you're visiting a GitHub Pages site and it will open a new tab with the site's repo.

Click the extension when you're visiting a GitHub repo and it will open a new tab with the link for its GitHub Pages site (which will be 404 if GitHub Pages isn't turned on for the repo you're looking at).

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

GitHub URL Swapper requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
