This is the unofficial Github1s chrome extension which provides a popup and a shortcut key to open the current github repository in Github1s's Visual Studio Code layout. It works either by pressing the key shortcut mentioned below or clicking the extension's button. Motivation behind it is I browse many repositories and it automates the process of changing URLs through a shortcut.
It's a very basic and easy chrome extension that can help you to understand the process of how chrome extensions work and are built.
Although, I can provide a .crx of the extension to easily install it but Chrome doesn't allow external extensions, only from Chrome store.
