Codeforces Chrome Extension for FB

By webmasteradi, history, 9 years ago, In English

Hello, I have created a chrome extension "Codeforces WA Questions FB News Feed".

What it does

It kills the distracting facebook news feed and replaces it with your pending Questions(attempted but haven't solved successfully) on Codeforces. You can click on the question to open it in new tab for solving.



Messenger,notifications,trending are intact.

Installation

You can download the extension from Chrome Web Store — Codeforces WA Questions FB News Feed

After installing it you have to set username by clicking on options of the extension in the Chrome Extension Page.By default username is not set.



After entering a valid username and clicking on "Save", "Options saved" message is shown as in the below picture.



Non existing user check is also applied and it shows "Invalid Username entered" message.

All done. Just login in your facebook account and you will see the problems to solve next!!
The project is built on top of nealwu's KillNewsFeed.

UPD I accidently deleted the original(http://mirror.codeforces.com/blog/entry/20724) post :( , wrote once again.

UPD2 Source code on Github: https://github.com/adi11/CF-questions-extension

UPD3 Fix links to gym problems

I will be happy to receive feedback and suggestions :)

If you can implement timer, it'll be used by more people.

I think replacing the whole news feed is kinda radical, but putting the unsolved problems on top of the feed would be nice :)

I have used "News Feed Eradicator". This extension will be further useful, facebook is like a drug.

I'm using CF instead of FB. It's super effective!
