Readable Chrome Extension: Improve Readability of Web Pages
"Readable" is a simple yet efficient Chrome extension designed to enhance the readability of unstyled HTML pages. It modifies the body style of these pages to lessen strain on the eyes and improve the reading experience. Readable applies changes such as color adjustment, padding addition, line height alteration, and font change to present the content neatly and clearly. It's most effective on sites without CSS and doesn’t remedy poorly designed CSS.
