## Description

Netflix Sleep Timer allows you to automatically pause or close Netflix after a set time or when a new episode starts.

I created this extension to avoid the hassle of constantly monitoring Netflix usage, especially with kids. Now, the computer can automatically close the browser when an episode ends, helping to control binge-watching habits.

By design, there is no "Wait for the end of episode and Pause" option, as it can encourage continued watching. Additionally, there's no "Stop timer" feature, which might be added in future versions if needed.
