About Yang! - Yet Another Bangs anywhere extension

➡️ What is a Bang? Citing DuckDuckGo, who first introduced them back in 2008: "Bangs are shortcuts that quickly take you to search results on other sites. For example, when you know you want to search on another site like Wikipedia or Amazon, our bangs get you there fastest. A search for '!w filter bubble' will take you directly to Wikipedia." ➡️ How does the extension work Simply install the extension and use any of the supported Kagi Bangs (see https://kbe.smaertness.net/). Bangs can be used at the beginning or at the end of the query, e.g.: • !gm here to closest restaurant • here to closest restaurant !gm Bangs can also be triggered without any query, serving as a bookmark shortcut: • !bbc ➡️ Features • Kagi Bangs: More than 13,500 default bangs included. • Custom Bangs: You can create your own bangs or override defaults. • Custom Bang Symbol: Define your own custom symbol(s) to trigger the bangs. • Multiple Target URLs: Open multiple websites with a single bang. • Custom Base URL: Specify which URL to open when the bang is triggered without arguments. • Fast Redirections: Bangs are resolved locally, without Kagi as intermediary. • Address Bar Trigger: You can use bangs directly in the URL bar. • Search Engine Trigger: Bangs also work from the search bar of your favorite search engine. • Backup and Restore: Never lose your bangs. • Mobile Support: Yang! is also available on Firefox Android. ➡️ FAQs • Do bangs sync across devices? Yes... and no. Bangs will sync across all the Firefox desktop browsers in which you are logged in with your Firefox account. However, the sync between desktop and mobile is currently unsupported. As a workaround, you can create a backup on desktop and restore it on Android (or vice versa). • Why does Yang! need permissions on a 300+ sites? Instead of requesting data access on all sites, we granularly specify the search-engine sites that Yang! supports (which yeah, they're quite a few). You can find which sites we request permissions for in the manifest.json.
