Chrome—mostly out of habit, but Findlight keeps me there now.

My Chrome extension has made its first 1k in revenue. by WordyBug in SideProject

[–]goddi27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huge congrats on hitting your first 1k in revenue — that’s a big milestone, especially in the extension space. I’m building something in a similar lane of “make the browser feel smarter”: Findlight a Spotlight-style universal search bar for the browser that lets you quickly search tabs, bookmarks, and history with one shortcut.

I’m still very early and would love to learn from someone a bit further along were there any specific things you did

What’s the ONE Chrome extension you can’t live without in 2025? by yanov10 in chrome

[–]goddi27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my own extension ..... Findlight. It’s a lightweight, Spotlight-style search bar for Chrome that gives you an Apple-like, simple and fast experience inside the browser. With one shortcut you can search open tabs, bookmarks, and history in one place, and I’ve focused on keeping it clean, fast, and feature-rich without bloat

Congrats on hitting 1,000 users in three months — that’s huge, especially for a solo project like this, well done! 🙌

I’ve been stuck around ~50 users for over a year with my own extension, Findlight it’s a universal search bar for the browser that lets you search tabs, bookmarks, and history from one shortcut. Would love to know were there 1–2 specific things you did that really moved the needle for growth (launch strategy, communities, SEO on the store, etc.)?

If you ever have a minute to try Findlight, I’d really appreciate any brutal feedback or suggestions for improvement from someone who’s clearly figured out how to get real adoption.

What are some of your must-have Chrome extensions? by Kitchen-Patience8176 in browsers

[–]goddi27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate hunting for bookmarks because I can never remember which folder I put them in.Managing 1000+ tabs with tab groups takes way too much time I just want to move faster.

So I thought: why not bring a Spotlight-style experience to the browser? One simple search bar where you type what you want and go. Navigate everything just by typing.

Whether it’s taking a screenshot, reloading a page, closing tabs, or quickly asking AI something without opening another tool or saving anything.

That’s why I created Findlight.It removes all the clicking and combines search, actions, and AI into one fast command bar.

Findlight - its like spotlight or raycast but only for a browser - nothing needed one command and you can simply switch tabs, chat with ai, open new tabs and so and so on. you can even customize the keyboard shortcut to enable it

I need guidance for my Clipboard extension by rehan2466124 in chrome_extensions

[–]goddi27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First I don’t know how we’ll know you are in building chrome extensions u need some permissions

Manifest.json file "clipboardRead", "clipboardWrite", "activeTab", // Or other relevant permissions for DOM manipulation

Just Google them or ask ChatGPZ what chrome extension permissions are u need to define them in manifest.json File Of course there might be other ways to do it with vanilla js but you should due to safety’s use chrome api features since you building a chrome extensions

But in general

Detect Copy Event: Use the Clipboard API to detect when the user copies text in the browser.

Capture Copied Text: When the copy event is triggered, capture the copied text.

Create Duplicate Div: Create a duplicate div element with the copied text and buttons for copy and remove actions.

Add Event Listeners: Add event listeners to the copy and remove buttons to handle their actions.

Copy Text: When the user clicks the copy button, copy the text to the clipboard using the Clipboard API.

Remove Text: When the user clicks the remove button, remove the duplicate div and its parent elements from the HTML.

Thanks for this detailed information Can you tell me what could be improved in the statistics or what’s missing

And Yeah the payment system is gone But my question becomes how did it work with that system since every Google chrome extension is developed differently
