  • Make it possible for it to access multiple sheets
  • able to run leetcode or GFG automatically in a new application window.
  • Remove Node Integration from all renderer process(Security risk).
  • Convert all html pages into a SPA (Single-page application) to get seamless work.
  • (Developer side only) Add nodemon to the applicaiton for regular updates.
  • Move to react and typescript(Not necessary, if project gets big)

Please make sure that you are using correct file-locations/urls. Mentioned here:

  • Urls can be found using searching "http".
  • File location can be found in ":\" and is only in vbs/bat file.
  • Make sure to change birthYear var.
  • Make sure to put the startupfile shortcut into start-up folder(Win+R > "shell:startup" > A folder will open).
