This extension intercepts requests to PDFs of papers on arXiv and some other sites (mainly machine learning publications) and redirects the browser to the paper's parent HTML page. A request for the PDF from that HTML page will then work.
These redirections mean you can see the metadata about papers before clicking on the PDF.
The code uses a list of redirect rules. When I extend this list of sites the extension works with, you will be asked to confirm extending the permissions to new sites. For now, see the github page (Website link below) for more information.
Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
