## Description

A Firefox extension that automatically reloads your tabs at a custom interval.

<ol><li>Click the extension icon in the toolbar to open the popup</li><li>Enter the number of seconds between each reload</li><li>Click <strong>Start</strong></li></ol>
The tab will reload every N seconds. A countdown is displayed in the popup and on the extension icon badge.

Click <strong>Stop</strong> in the popup. The timer stops immediately.

You can run timers on multiple tabs simultaneously. The popup displays a list of all active timers with their tab names:

<code>- GitHub: 5s
- Stack Overflow: 10s
</code>

The timer for the currently viewed tab is shown in bold.

<ul><li><strong>Blue icon</strong>: No active timers</li><li><strong>Green icon with number</strong>: Timer active, the number shows seconds remaining before the next reload</li></ul>

Timers survive popup closure and Firefox restarts. The extension restores all active timers when the browser starts, picking up where they left off.

Closing a tab automatically stops its timer. No manual intervention needed.
