Markdown Menu for GitHub
Markdown Menu for GitHub is a Chrome extension developed by Will Klein. It falls under the category of Browsers and is specifically classified as an Add-ons & Tools subcategory. This extension is free to use and is not affiliated with GitHub.
The main purpose of Markdown Menu for GitHub is to add a navigation menu to any readme or Markdown file on GitHub. This is particularly useful for repositories with longer documents that may lack a Table of Contents. With this extension, users can easily navigate through these documents by clicking on the three-bar icon at the top of the Markdown file. The navigation menu includes a table of contents, allowing users to quickly jump to specific sections of the document.
Markdown Menu for GitHub requires two permissions. Firstly, it requests permission to read and change data on github.com. This is necessary for the extension to generate and add the navigation menu to Markdown views on GitHub. Secondly, it requests permission to read the user's browsing history. This enables the extension to work seamlessly across page navigations within github.com, ensuring that the navigation menu is consistently available.
Overall, Markdown Menu for GitHub is a helpful Chrome extension that enhances the navigation experience for GitHub READMEs and Markdown documents. Its simple and intuitive interface makes it easy for users to find and access specific sections within these documents.
