For example, I wanted to avoid pressing F each time to highlight actionable elements.
So I ended up building this minimalistic yet technically complex plugin to rapidly navigate websites by typing (BrowseCut). I believe it could be useful for folks here as well.
The plugin enables two things:
If you start typing with keyboard, it will highlight all matching elements and texts on the web page. Pressing Enter will activate the element.
If you hold SHIFT, the plugin plugin will highlight all actionable elements on page and assign short mnemonics, e.g. SHIFT + I for the largest input box.
There is a bunch of stuff under the hood, like improved arrow key scrolling. So I hope you'll find it useful. It is best combined with default browser shortcuts for tab manipulation and search, the plugin comes with a built-in cheatsheet.
