What is OctoLinker? Build Status Windows Build Status

First of all, it's a browser extension. Once installed, it allows you to navigate through projects on GitHub.com efficiently.

Most projects consist of many files and third party dependencies. Files are referencing other files and / or dependencies by language specific statements like include or require. Dependencies are most likely declared in a file called manifest e.g. package.json or Gemfile. The OctoLinker browser extensions makes these references clickable. No more copy and search.

Install

Install OctoLinker from Chrome Web Store, Mozilla Add-ons Store or Opera Add-ons Store.

Features
