This extension uses ManifestV2 and is cross-platform with Firefox and Chromium-based browsers. Simply load it as unpacked from about:debugging (Firefox) or chrome://extensions (Chrome) or get it from the extension store once available.
install.js is a simple script that defines an event for when the extension is first installed. It sets default values to the user choices & may be used for updating preferences with later revisions.
powerkeys.js is the primary source and loaded as a content-script on candykeys's website. This loads & applies all selected options which are stored in the extension's local storage. In addition, it listens to updates to the local storage to apply options accordingly.
dark.css is the CSS that is injected into the candykeys.com website if the user selects the "Dark mode" option.
Files in popup/ are used to create the extension window with which the user can interact. It is seperated into HTML, JavaScript and CSS. The JS updates the local storage of the extension based on the user's interaction.
manifest.json defines the extension's properties according to the ManifestV2 spec. This is planned to be updated to ManifestV3 once Firefox has fully adopted it.
In order to convert currencies, this extension may get info from api.coinbase.com. This is done because unlike many other APIs, Coinbase's does not require any form of authentication in order to get exchange rates. This causes the extension to also display crypto-currencies - but this still may be useful for some :) However, it is important to note that their privacy policy does apply if you choose to use this feature.

Thanks to everybody who was bearing with me with continous testing and for providing feedback. Also thanks to Rucola from the CandyKeys Discord who inspired me to make this, by posting JavaScript snippets to accomplish some of the features this extension includes.
