🎉 ExplainThat has now been shipped/awaiting shipment!
This has been great, it's helped to improve my Chrome Extensions skills further and learn about API fetching and adding elements dynamically.

Nice, this looks great!

Haven't had much time today, but I've crafted a new concept up: different levels of summarization. If you're in a hurry and want to know something quick, Low would be great for you! However, if you're not in a rush, you can pick High to have something explained in good detail.

I haven't coded the actual part yet, but it would be an idea that (could) work.
Also added a refresh button.

You can now copy the text to the clipboard!

New logo, by the way!

Page generation is now available! ExplainThat will first scan through the page and give you an explanation/summary within the span of a few seconds.

Liquid glass looks quite good... that's kinda amazing

Anyways, themes are now here! Currently there's only two, Default and Liquid Glass, but they're still amazing! (at least from my perspective). I've also added Markdown support.

The ExplainThat UI is now functional! You can select any text on any page, right click, and click on ExplainThat! and AI will now briefly explain it for you.

At the moment, I need to fine tune it a bit so that the prompt works great, and I plan on adding other features like changing the language, and maybe even add a settings panel?

Recently, I've been working on the UI for ExplainThat. I want it to primarily be a popup, as the explanations should only be around 1-2 sentences maximum. Maybe ExplainThat could act as more of a summary tool?

To begin, I've used Hack Club's AI API, and whenever you select something, AI explains it for you in 1-2 sentences, currently this is in the console.
