Is there's any for your extension to work all the time in the background or apply the effects b/f loading the website!
the effects apply too slowly to my system since it's an old system. I was thinking if the effects could be loaded b/f the page loads or the manager run in the background (its fine if it consumes few resources!)
Since a change for faster reapplying the styles was previously done with https://github.com/webextensions/live-css-editor/commit/a1b4f1fb33317862836aaaa3abe05c90a7e1b584 , there might be limited scope for improving it further (to reapply styles even sooner).
As briefly mentioned in https://github.com/webextensions/live-css-editor/issues/86 , currently we are targeting to upgrade to WebExtension's v3 manifest.json. We are expecting that there may be changes related to script load related flows.
Not sure if it would have direct impact in terms of what you are looking for, but, once the migration to Manifest V3 is complete, we will follow up on this report (if there is scope for improvement).
are there any extensions you know that apply the effects before loading the website or are always on in the background? can it be done?
@Droyk Not sure about the detailed behavior of the other extensions.
If you find any other extensions which serve this specific requirement better, you may drop their names here so that anyone else with similar issue might try them out. Also, we may learn from them and improve our functionality.
@webextensions Hmm, it seems like the amino Live CSS editor does it for me! you guys should look into it! https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/amino-css-live-editor/pbcpfbcibpcbfbmddogfhcijfpboeaaf
@Droyk Thank you for the reference. We will try to compare the performance and figure out the difference to improve this extension :+1:
