CSS Update & Alias Creation!

Hey there! Today I updated my extensions CSS! It’s far from finished, but it already looks way better than the plain default HTML styling.

Since the last Devlog, I have also implemented the creation of aliases! This means you can simply press “Create” on the main page and the extension will generate a new email alias for you! This is the main feature of the extension.

My next step is it to redesign the list of aliases on the main page of the extension, and to add the deletion of aliases!

Hey there, moving my project here from Macondo, therefore these are two devlogs in one! I have NOT shipped this project to Macondo before.

Hey there, everyone! I finished the main setup for the tool today! It
loads the host URL and API key from a credentials.json file and then
prompts the user to select an email address. It then displays all the
email aliases that exist for this email address!
I already managed to create aliases with the API, haven’t really
implemented that yet though. At least it works and just requires some
polishing. :)
I am planning to make this a browser extension, so you can simply
generate new email aliases whenever you sign up for a new service or
website. This way, you can easily see where spam emails come from, and
you can just delete the alias for it!

Yay, finally! I started working on the extension yesterday. Most of the
UI is just filled with white pages at the moment but this is obviously
subject to change! The extension features an onboarding flow that asks
for the server URL and an API key.
Today, I made the creation page. It’s still far from perfect. The
creation of aliases does not work yet, but the rest of the extension
does! (sorry for how pixelated this image is, I had to edit it in MS
Paint)
