Send or push url of a web page of your current active tab in desktop Chrome to KDE Connect on your android mobile phone
Open source at https://github.com/phpmoli/kdeconnect-chrome

Permissions required:
- Native Messaging for executing external commands on the system as it uses a 3rd party package.
The open source code has only 4 lines of actual code and can be reviewed under a minute.
**TO WORK YOU NEED TO MANUALLY INSTALL FILES FROM THE GITHUB REPOSITORY TOO.**
This is not my game, this is a must for Chrome Native Messaging, that needs manual install to prevent malicious extensions which can execute anything on your system. And since you are going on github, you should read the source to check the code is benevolent, so anyway its a win.
My first Chrome extension, in beta stage, without error handling. Written for Debian + Chrome only (edit: now Vivaldi), feel free to include support for BSD or Opera, the source is open.
Having said that, i dont see this tool to be developed any further as it should be written using native code and not by using a system call. I chose my way because it was the fastest. Inspired by https://kamikazow.wordpress.com/2014/11/22/send-firefox-tabs-to-your-phone-via-kde-connect/
Why install a package and not using kdeconnect-cli? Here's why:
```
$ kdeconnect-cli --list-devices
- myandroid: bc61836a282b2b7e (paired and reachable)
1 devices found
$ kdeconnect-cli --device bc61836a282b2b7e --ping ; echo $?
0
$ kdeconnect-cli --device bc61836a282b2b7f --ping ; echo $?
0
```
version 0.3 does not need All tabs permission anymore, as since https://github.com/phpmoli/kdeconnect-chrome/issues/1 we were not using it anyway.
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!
