Link Checker - Chrome Extension for Auditing Webpage Links

'Link Checker' is a Chrome extension designed to verify the functionality of all links on a currently active webpage. It not only indicates the response status of each link inline but also provides a comprehensive status report in a dedicated pop-up. Information in the report includes a progress percentage, a tally of good, bad, and warning links, and the time it took to complete the report. There are options to run Link Checkr manually on specific links and to switch between HEAD and GET request methods.
