Modern Browser Compatibility

The extension uses a hybrid detection system combining URL analysis, navigation listeners, and image-type detection to automatically recognize supported image tabs and open them in the viewer.

Open Source

OpenImage Viewer is a community-maintained open-source project inspired by the original BetterViewer project.

Source code, issue tracking, and development information are available on GitHub.
