Question

Calling all Coders. I have an Idea for an addon for FireFox but need help in the creation. @dumbsearch2

Answer 1

A icon on the firefox base, This icon openes a sidebar which has the flexbox chat options and lists all the groups here that you can click on and view the top questions. I think this would be a good feature becuase a lot of people are homeschooled and cant be online all the time but it would be nice to be able to get our notifs while we are doing schoolwork and not be in openstudy all the time

Answer 2

my basic idea..nothing works...just sketched it in photoshop...i will ad more with the basic funtions

Answer 3

Its just in the drawing stages but here is my idea @Preetha This one is the basics of what it would look like...obviously its not fixed up yet

Answer 4

this is if you had clicked on a question this would pop up

Answer 5

this shows that the chat is active

Answer 6

when you click on the chat button it pops up with all the active chats

Answer 7

when you click on the chat you want it opens it up

Answer 8

@abb0t @BostonBlue @AriPotta @dumbsearch2 @Compassionate @Mertsj @karatechopper What do yall think of the idea?

Answer 9

I'm not a coder and don't know anything about codes.

Answer 10

I was just asking what you think @abb0t

Answer 11

It's a good idea. I'd imagine it'll be like coding any other Firefox app.

Answer 12

yeah @Compassionate I would think so but i would like help...thats why i have been trying to get ahold of @dumbsearch2

Answer 13

I'm still learning basic HTML...

Answer 14

that's really cool bro!

how would you change subjects? would you be able to minimize it but still be able to see if you got notifications and if the chat was active? like when it's maximized, you could see the chat flashing, but when it's minimized, would there be a way to see it flashing without it being big?

idk if that made any sense or not.

and i can't really help :/ i know nothing about that at all. but i could give feedback once you have started it up
