A simple extension to save and organize your research papers (cause I'm sick of keeping track of it in docs and sheets).
- Navigate to the releases to download the zip file or simple clone this repo.
git clone https://github.com/research-paper-extension- Go to the extensions tab in Edge or Chrome. I mainly developed this using MS Edge
edge://extensions/. - Enable developer support (a formal release will be made soon to the extension stores).
- Select the directory of this project/the unpacked directory if you're downloading a .zip file.
- Open the extension. If you don't see it click on the puzzle icon on the top right.
- When you load it at first, you will need to create a new group before you can add papers (if you want a general paper dump, name the first group anything you like).
- Once you create a group, navigate to the Save to Group card above, and click on the group you want to save the paper to.
- Click on the Save Paper button
- Scroll down to see your saved papers. The default view shows all your papers (regardless of groups)
- If you want to see your papers in groups, click on the dropout on the top-right of the card, and click on the group you want to filter
- You can now see your papers filtered by groups
- Add export to sheet or doc option later
- Add option to download the saved groups to local/drive
- Add option for users to color their groups
- idk what else will think of stuff later...
