Quick Extension Reload

Reload extensions in development from the context menu.

Quick Extension Reload streamlines the extension development process by allowing developers to easily reload their extensions without navigating to the extensions tab.

Simply right-click on any page and select the reload option to refresh all in-development extensions instantly. Alternatively, use the convenient default shortcut Alt+R for even faster access. Inspired by the Tango project icons, this lightweight tool boosts productivity and speeds up your development workflow.
