In China, teachers, students, and researchers need to download the pdf full text on arxiv, such as https://arxiv.org/abs/1806.09755. However, it's too slow, which is just a waste of time to wait for downloading.
This extension is to offer an alternative link on the original page for those who want to download. This link is an official website mirror in China. Taking the mentioned URL 'https://arxiv.org/abs/1806.09755' as an example, its download link is 'https://arxiv.org/pdf/1806.09755'. This extension will add a new link below the download link, shown as 'Chinese mirror' on the HTML page whose actual link is 'http://cn.arxiv.org/pdf/1806.09755'. This is much faster in China.
Therefore, this extension is simple but much helpful.
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!
