RainWiper

● A playful Chrome extension that brings real-looking rain to your browser. Watch droplets bead up on your screen like a window, the view gradually fogs over, and a wiper-button click (or ESC) sweeps it clean. That satisfying moment of clearing is the whole point. ▼ Good for ・Browsing in a rainy-day mood ・Soft background rain sound while you work ・A small break, or as a demo accent ▼ Main features 🌧️ Real-looking rain 　・SVG lens refraction — drops bend the page behind them 　・Drops have organic, irregular shapes (no stamped-circle look) 　・Sliding drops leave wet trails that the wiper progressively clears 　・Fog thickens over time and slowly returns after a sweep 　・Drop arrivals are synced to the rhythm of the rain audio ⛈️ 6 intensity levels (manual switch supported) 　・Light rain / Rain / Heavy / Downpour / Thunder / Snow 　・Thunder mode plays lightning flashes and thunder claps 　・Snow mode gives a frosted, "icy window" cloudy effect 🌍 Real-weather sync 　・Set a location and it polls Open-Meteo (free, no API key) every 30 min 　・Auto-on when it's raining there, auto-off when it stops 🚗 Wiper and AUTO mode 　・Click the bottom-right button or hit ESC to wipe 　・Double-click for AUTO mode (auto-wipes based on rain intensity) 　・Switch between tandem and opposed two-blade layouts 🪶 Lite mode 　・Drops the backdrop-filter entirely when the GPU is busy (e.g. video) 　・Simpler look, but big drop in CPU usage 🎬 Video-friendly mode 　・Lightens the fog only — drop visuals stay rich 　・For when you want rain over a video without the fog cost 🔊 Three independent volume sliders 　・Rain sound / Wiper sound / Thunder sound, each controlled separately 　・Mute thunder for a bedroom session, keep the rain ambience 👁️ Bottom-right button — 3 visibility modes 　・"Auto-hide" (default): invisible until your cursor approaches 　・"Always shown": faint at rest, opaque on hover 　・"Completely hidden": gone entirely (ESC and AUTO mode still work) 🛡️ Privacy 　・Location is used only to query Open-Meteo (open-source, free API) 　・No tracking, no external transmission 　・All settings stored locally in your browser ▼ Controls ・Per-tab ON/OFF (popup "Rain on this tab" button) ・Click the bottom-right button → run the wiper ・Double-click → toggle AUTO mode ・Long-press (550 ms) → toggle Lite mode ・Shift+click → toggle sound ・Drag the button anywhere you like ▼ Notes ・Doesn't run on chrome:// or Chrome Web Store pages (browser restriction) ・Older browsers without backdrop-filter support will miss the refraction effect Enjoy your rainy day 🌧️
