A simple playground to write, run, and test JavaScript snippets, with an in-UI console. Built for quick experiments, debugging, learning, testing ideas, and working with JavaScript without needing a full development environment. This tool is offline by design, providing a robust JavaScript playground directly within Chrome.
the offline-by-design framing is the right call - I don't need a whole IDE spun up just to check what a one-liner does, and having it live entirely in the extension with no server means it opens instantly. the JSON side is genuinely useful too, formatting and poking at a blob of JSON without pasting it into some random website is a nice bonus on top of the JS runner.
What needs improvement
it isn't clear from the listing whether you can pull in an external library for a snippet that needs one, like lodash, or if it's strictly vanilla JS/JSON only. that boundary would be worth spelling out up front.
CodeSandbox is great when I actually need a project with a file tree and dependencies, but that's overkill for a five-line snippet I want to throw away in thirty seconds. this is closer to a scratchpad that happens to run JS - no account, no project setup, just open the extension and go.
Hi @galdayan Thanks for the feedback on review. :)
Definitely I can add support for external libraries in the form of CDN Links. Apart from this I don't wan't to overcomplicate things. If any one wants more features, there is always an IDE like VS Code etc.
