hnhance
A browser extension for the website Hacker News.
HNHance is a collection of assorted small enhancements for Hacker News (news.ycombinator.com). All features and themes can be configured and disabled by a non-intrusive settings menu. Some modifications were written by myself, some were tweaked, and some were blatantly sourced from appropriately licensed places throughout the internet.
Please feel free to modify and add features to HNHance, patches are accepted by email.
Current HNHance versions are packaged as Chrome extensions, but earlier versions were also available as a userscript for Firefox.
