BrowserAction: Applications Section

[Shoalsteed]

1. Since using this extension, I feel like I am always losing my way to /home on my router console. That is a me thing maybe, but, I like to see it or access it quickly.

Since this section is about connecting to your I2P Java applications, instead of linking to the home page of the router extension, (Help Page) - could this link to /home?

2. Does this extension only work with I2P Java? if that is the case, should it say so?

In the section where the text says " These applications work with I2P...." Would it make sense to change this to: This extension allows direct access to the following applications in your I2P Java router. To enable this feature, ....do this .....).

In the sections for the applications that the extension links too - should the names of the applications be used in the descriptions.

Email: Access SusiMail, the I2P Network webmail client.

Bittorrent: Access Snark, the anonymizing peer-to-peer file sharing bittorrent application for the I2P network.

1. I'll add a router console entry to that section but I'd rather not get rid of the extension help page. That's the only place it is accessible from.
2. No it works with any I2P distribution, however, many of it's features work best with I2P Java. For i2pd users, you get basic proxy functionality when you use it with just i2pd, you get bittorrent functionality if you're using Snark Standalone alongside it, and you end up with all the features if you enable I2PControl and run Snark Standalone on localhost:7657. When using it with i2pd, things which aren't available will almost all automatically blank themselves out.

Re: re-introducing brand names that's fine but just for my own edification can you walk me through the thought-process? I pause because it used to be like that, where [name](link to app): is a built-in I2P $app_protocol client.

Should any instruction for different distributions be mentioned in the onboarding for the extension homepage?

My though was familiarity - so if a person is used to using Snark, they should see that in the bittorrent reference that is what we are talking about and where they are going if they click a link.
