Full summary

Vimium C is an open source browser extension that provides keyboard-based inner-page navigation, browser tab operations, and an enhanced search panel, so you may take full advantages of your browser without a mouse or touchpad.

It supports all original commands of Vimium and some new useful commands (a full list can be seen in a help dialog in the Vimium C Options page). And it can map a same key sequence to different commands for different websites (and/or for different active elements in page).

For example:

  • press f to hint all clickable elements of the current web page
  • press o to show a search panel ("Vomnibar", a safe iframe) to search in your history, bookmarks, opened tabs and configured search engines, and you can even remove a history or tab by selecting a search result and pressing Shift+Delete
  • press j, k, h, l to scroll down/up/left/right on web pages
  • press "/" to search for text; press "v" to enter Visual Mode (just like VIM)
  • press Shift+J, Shift+K, g0, g$ to switch to the previous/next/first/last tab
  • press x to remove a tab, and Shift+X to restore recently closed tabs (sessions), and many other commands
  • command repetition: for example, pressing 5X (5, Shift+X) will restore 5 recent closed tabs
  • configure key mappings to bind Vimium C's tens of commands to other key sequences, and add options to switch command behaviors
  • apply block lists and allow lists of key mappings on configurable special websites and URLs

Night Shift automatically shifts the colors of your browser content to the warmer end of the color spectrum after dark ⚡ You need to refresh all the tabs, which were opened BEFORE the Night Shift was installed. You can also restart the Edge to refresh all the tabs at once. Otherwise, Night Shift will work only with the newly opened tabs.

⚡In accordance with the Edge Browser policies, Night Shift is restricted to work on the Microsoft Store and Home Page. Please open any other website (for example, google.com) after installing this extension and check the extension in action.

This tiny app changes the color temperature of the Edge tabs (entire content) towards the yellowish part of the color spectrum, that reduces some of the blue light from the screen, thus, an eye strain during night-time use, helping to reduce the disruption of sleep patterns. This helps to have a better overall night's sleep.

You can manually choose the shift from color presets, to pick up the most comfortable and calm atmosphere for your eyes during the night sessions or through the all day long.

Night Shift provides itself on a scheduled basis, you can choose from 3 options:

  1. Sunset to Sunrise (Edge colors will be shaded every day automatically on Sunset).
  2. Off (manually enable the Night Shift to shade the screen)
