HighLight is a Google Chrome extension developed over 20 hours at the Facebook Singapore Hackathon 2018. It is a community-driven software project that uses a user's activity on a webpage to infer the most important and relevant parts of a webpage. This information, in turn, is used to help future visitors gather the most information from the webpage quickly.
A demo of HighLight is shown below:
The image below shows the user interface (UI) that is displayed upon clicking the HighLight icon in the toolbar.
The image below shows the pop up that is displayed upon hovering over text that is highlighed on a webpage.
It consists of:
- A like button to represent an upvote
- A dislike button to represent a downvote
- The overall sentiment (= upvotes - downvotes)
- Number of groups
