## Description

Overview

The Webpage Editor extension is a browser tool that allows users to create temporary editable versions of any webpage. It injects editing functionality directly into the page, making it perfect for quick prototypes, mockups, or testing design changes. The edits made using this extension are temporary, meaning they only persist until the page is refreshed.
Key Features

    Instant Edit Mode: Easily toggle between view-only and edit mode on any webpage.
    Temporary Edits: All changes are client-side and do not affect the actual content or code of the webpage.
    Word Count Comparison: Track original and edited word counts dynamically.
    Simple Toggle Button: An intuitive button embedded with an SVG icon for enabling/disabling the edit mode.

Installation
From the Chrome Web Store (or relevant browser store)

    Go to the [Chrome Web Store link] or relevant extension marketplace.
    Click "Add to Chrome" (or your browser's equivalent) to install the Webpage Editor.
    Once installed, you’ll see the Webpage Editor icon in your browser's extension toolbar.

How to Use

    Click the Webpage Editor icon in your browser toolbar.

    Click the button labeled editGPT to enable edit mode:

        Word counts for the original and revised text are displayed dynamically.

    Refresh the page to discard all edits.
