Sorry, I am rejecting this project because when I try to load the CRX file it comes up with the error "CRX_FILE_NOT_READABLE". Once this is corrected and you are sure it will work on a user's device feel free to reship and we can take another look!
If you have any questions, feel free to ask in #ask-the-shipwrights.

Hey there,
I can see you added the .CRX file to your GitHub release as requested in the support ticket! Great! Sadly, I still need to reject your submission because the "Try project" URL from Stardance still redirects to your YouTube video demo. Please fix this and resubmit!

If you have any questions, feel free to ask in #ask-the-shipwrights on Slack!

Hi Kartikey! This is a great extension! However, you need to publish it on the Chrome Web Store for us to approve it

If you have any questions, ask them in #ask-the-shipwrights or in DM to @mathias

Mission Completed VidNote V1 is live 🎬⚡

Taking notes on YouTube programming tutorials has too much friction, switching tabs makes you lose your pace or remembering where you left your tutorial is too time consuming.

So I built VidNote. It’s a Chrome Extension that lets you take timestamped notes/videomark without ever leaving the video.

The Stack & Features:

Manifest V3 & Vanilla JS

DOM Injection: Injects a native “📝 Note” button directly into the YouTube control bar.

Zero-Friction Hotkey: Hit Alt+N while watching, the video auto-pauses, you type your note, hit enter, and it auto-resumes.

The Teleporter: Click a timestamp in the popup to instantly jump the video back to that exact second.

Local Storage & Export: Notes save locally and can be copied to your clipboard in one click for Notion/Obsidian.

It’s not a billion-dollar startup, but it solves my exact problem

See how it works: https://youtu.be/08dv63YkPuk?si=P_uNvBjuAs3gAz8J

So i added a copy all button so you can copy all your timestamped notes in clipboard also there is a shortcut ‘ALT+N’ to quickly take notes and a little note button sits right inside your youtube video to make it even more accessible while significantly improving its UI!!
