A browser extension that watches and notifies about:
- new posts in subreddits and Reddit searches,
- unread private messages in multiple accounts,
- the latest users' comments and posts.

This extension uses OAuth2 authentication to get authorization and refresh tokens. These tokens will be used to check reddit private messages for multiple accounts. To generate credentials create new reddit app, and add id of the app in .env file (see .env.example).
The pop-up and option pages UI are made with Svelte + Tailwind CSS and bundled with Vite.
