Safari Extension #189

Closed TomSrc closed 1 year ago

TomSrc commented 1 year ago

Would it be possible to bring this addon to Safari? Apple has the "Safari web extension converter" which is able to convert Chrome addons into a Safari extension using Xcode.

I'm currently unable to support the Safari browser. Because Apple requires me to pay $100 per year to be an Apple developer so that I can publish the extension to the store. And I would need to buy an Apple device to run XCode.

But, I believe you can convert the extension with XCode on your own Apple device and run it locally in your Safari browser.

Thanks for the reply, I understand it is unrealistic to buy and Apple device in addition to the $100 per year just to port the extension. As for converting the extension myself I ran into issues with archiving then distributing the extension to myself for personal use, I am completely unfamiliar with anything related to coding which has led me to ask if porting the extension officially is possible. Thanks again

No problem. Let me know when Apple changes their requirements.

Or when you get it working. Then we could write a guide for other Safari users.
