## Description

Link Previewer lets you peek 🔎 into web pages without ever leaving your current tab.

Key Features:
- Multitasking: Interact with your main page and the preview window at the same time.
- Less Tabs: Comb through search results in one tab!  While Link Preview is open, clicking links in the parent page updates the preview window instead of opening a new tab!
- Simply Performant: Made with performance in mind, with ZERO bloat.
- No Analytics 📝, No ADs 🤮, No AI Summary 🤖

I believe software should be free and benefit the society.  This project will forever be Open Source ✅
