About Web Search Navigator

Web Search Navigator is an open-source browser extension that adds configurable keyboard shortcuts for navigating Google search results, with optional support for YouTube, GitHub, Amazon, Startpage, Brave Search, Google Scholar, GitLab, and other sites. It is compatible with Chrome, Firefox, and Edge, with experimental Safari support available. Shortcuts enable users to select, open, and navigate search results, switch between Google search tabs (images, news, maps, etc.), filter results by time range, and toggle result sort order. All shortcuts are customizable, settings sync via the user's browser profile, and users can apply custom CSS to adjust the appearance of highlighted results.
