🖇️LinkedIn Notes
A Chrome extension that adds private notes and color-coded tags to LinkedIn profiles. All data stays local in the browser — no servers, no accounts, no tracking. Includes a CRM dashboard, quick search popup, and JSON export. Built with WXT + React.

Why I Built This
LinkedIn doesn't let you save private notes about connections. Every alternative requires an account and sends your data to their servers. Built a privacy-first tool that keeps everything in your browser.
How It Works
WXT framework (next-gen browser extension toolkit) + React. Content script injects a note icon on LinkedIn profile pages (/in/*). Clicking opens a modal for notes and color-coded tags with autocomplete. Popup provides quick search across all saved profiles. Full CRM dashboard shows all annotated contacts in a table with filtering. All data stored in chrome.storage.local — zero network requests.
Notable Technical Details
