rusty-skywalker's Issues

Clarify readme

I couldn't figure out from the readme how this is different from setting custom search keywords in Chrome: I've gone into the search engines list and set hoogle.haskell.org to !h so I can type !h query into my omnibox and search hoogle with it. This seems to implement the same or a similar thing? Or am I misunderstanding?

Heroku App Crashes

• Heroku deployment error H10

Hello sir, it's 2024, are you interested in updating your version

Add Chrome Extension Support

• It's nice to have a chrome extension, that would set the settings with just one click!
