An extension working on both Chrome and Firefox that enables you to read your Facebook message without notifying your friends. We have a lot of very cool features in development. Contrary to other "similar" extensions available we do not store data about you or your behavior and are very respectful of your privacy.
Code guidelines: We follow Google's code guideline for Javascript, before making a pull request please read: https://google-styleguide.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/javascriptguide.xml
ToDo:
-
General:
- Improve description of chrome extension store
- Add high-quality screenshots
-
Software development:
- Whitelist support: Enable the user to add friends to a "whitelist" (Note: the XHR Post request's header made to facebook.com/ajax/mercury/change_read_status.php contains all the information we need).
- Artificial list of "seen message" see issue #1
-
Design:
- Design a real icon for the extension (current one is copylefted)
- Video of software in use
-
Marketing:
- Establish a deployment strategy
- Add a "viral component" to the product
Structure
The branch prod is the production branch and master is the main development branch. License and "meta" improvements are made on meta and new features/bug fixes have their own branches. Once they have proven to work in "most" cases they can be merged to master where they will receive more tests to eventually be used in prod.
