Is what-to-click portable to other browsers?

I was wondering whether this app is portable to Chrome and Safari (and Edge? 😅).
For that matter, is it written in the WebExtensions API or is it using some Firefox specific parts? Or are there other concerns why this is only available for firefox?

The main reason it's available only for Firefox is that I'm using Firefox as a daily driver 😅

Main issue atm will be the Manifest V2 sunset for Chromium which this extension is using extensively. Also, Firefox has the best Web Extension API coverage, so some adjustments to the way eg. screenshots are taken will be necessary but nothing major. As for Safari, I haven't researched that tbh.

Feel free to try running the extension on Chromium, I'll be happy to accept contributions and help solving specific issues when those emerges during the porting but I'm not planning on porting the extension myself, as I'm working on a desktop-wide What-to-click anyway.

Thanks for the clarification. I'll give it a shot and see if it works in Safari/Chrome.

I would also be strongly interested in a desktop based tool. How far are your advances there? Is it possible to do an alpha/beta test for this? 🙃

Not far, just a PoC, also the first version will be targeting macOS only. If you're interested, please contact [email protected], I'll let you know once something comes out of it 😀
