Any chance to port this extension to WebExtension API?

dadler commented 7 years ago

I doubt I'll do it, but I'm not sure. It'll be a lot of work and I'm not sure it's even possible to support all the current features as a web extension. Even if I don't port it myself, the software is open source so anyone with the skills is welcome to submit a port to me or fork it as a new version.

I was looking at the code for that and seems very difficult to port this extension without a rewriting from scratch. Probably is better to switch on https://github.com/extesy/hoverzoom/issues/273 when the firefox version will be avalaible.
