A feature-packed, customizable reader extension.
Just Read is a feature-packed and customizable reader view.
With one click (or less!), you can remove distractions like:
- The page's styling
- Ads

- Comments
And read the article in a customizable, simplified format - like a read mode but better!
Users can:
- Use the default white and dark themes.
- Modify your theme using a graphical editor or CSS.
- Use a theme someone else has made (found at https://goo.gl/Z59SM4 ).
- Use their very own custom styling.
- Auto-run Just Read format on specific sites.
- Use a keyboard shortcut to run Just Read.
- Print the custom-styled version of the article.
- Use the selection mode to choose exactly which text they want to select for reading.
- Use the deletion mode to remove any unwanted content after selection.
- Edit incorrect meta information generated.
- Control which options Just Read uses.
- Go straight to the next chapter from the Just Read view.

As someone who is autistic and therefore has visual processing issues, this extension is a crucial accessibility tool for me. There are many poorly-designed websites that have so many pictures, videos, and popups that I literally cannot read them without this tool. I also have yet to encounter a website that does not work with this tool. Thank you for developing it! |

It can be used by average person, but this extension is primarily for people adept with handling CSS scripts. |

Add an ability to hide the original full page content for autoloaded sites list in the read mode, but with a some pause before hiding – some N seconds (add a text field for it in settings). |
