Extension summary

Description: JavaScript Toggler is a lightweight and efficient Chrome extension that empowers users with the ability to quickly enable or disable JavaScript execution on the webpage they are currently viewing. With a simple click of the extension icon, users can toggle the state of JavaScript, enhancing their browsing experience by improving page load times, reducing data usage, and increasing security on demand.

This extension is perfect for users who frequently encounter websites overloaded with scripts that slow down their browser, consume excessive data, or pose security risks. JavaScript Toggler is also an invaluable tool for web developers and testers who need to check the functionality of web pages with JavaScript turned off.

Features: One-Click JavaScript Toggle: Instantly enable or disable JavaScript on the current tab with a single click on the extension's icon. Per-Site Setting Persistence: The extension remembers the JavaScript setting for each site, applying your last choice every time you visit. Lightweight and Fast: Operates smoothly without affecting browser performance, ensuring a seamless user experience. Enhanced Privacy and Security: Helps protect against malicious scripts and enhances privacy by disabling JavaScript on sites known for tracking or intrusive ads. Easy to Use: Designed with a straightforward user interface, making it accessible for users of all skill levels. Developer-Friendly: A handy tool for developers and testers to quickly simulate environments where JavaScript is disabled. How It Works: Upon clicking the extension icon, JavaScript Toggler evaluates the JavaScript setting for the current webpage. If JavaScript is enabled, the extension disables it for the domain of the currently active tab and vice versa. After toggling the setting, the extension automatically refreshes the page to apply the new setting, ensuring that users can immediately see the effect of their action.
