Codolio Chrome Extension: Your Coding Companion

The Codolio Chrome Extension is the bridge between your practice platforms and your Codolio Workspace in Question Tracker. It eliminates the need to constantly switch tabs or copy-paste URLs.

Whether you are solving a new problem on LeetCode or revising an old one on GeeksforGeeks, the extension lets you manage your tracking without ever leaving the page.

1. What Is the Extension?

It is a browser tool that lives in your toolbar. Its primary job is to detect the coding problem you are currently viewing and give you instant access to your Codolio Question Tracker tools (Notes, Tags, Sheets) right there on the screen.

Key Benefits:

  • No Copy-Pasting: It auto-reads the URL and fetches the problem details (Topic, Difficulty, Name).
  • Instant Notes: Read your revision notes directly on the problem page.
  • Seamless Tracking: Add questions to your Workspace or Custom Sheets in one click.

2. Supported Platforms

The extension works on all major coding websites:

  • LeetCode
  • GeeksforGeeks (GFG)
  • CodeStudio (Naukri)
  • Codeforces
  • CodeChef
  • HackerRank

3. How It Works (Auto-Detection)

The extension is smart. It knows when you are on a problem page and when you aren’t.

  1. Navigate to a Problem: Go to any problem page (e.g., Two Sum on LeetCode).
  2. Click the Icon: Open the Codolio extension from your browser toolbar.
  3. Instant Recognition:
    • If it’s a valid problem: You will immediately see the question details (Name, Difficulty, Topic) and any Popular Sheets it belongs to.
    • If it’s not a problem page: The extension will simply show a list of supported platforms and ask you to visit a problem page to start tracking.

4. Using the Extension: Two Main Scenarios

Scenario A: Adding a New Question

You found a new problem and want to add it to your Codolio My Workspace.

  1. Open the extension on the problem page.
  2. The interface will show the “Add Question” view.
  3. Customize:
    • Status: Mark it as Solved or Starred.
    • Tags: Add custom tags like “Tricky” or “Revisit”.
    • Notes: Write your approach or solution directly in the extension.
    • Sheets: Select a Custom Sheet to add this problem to.
  4. Click Save: The question is instantly added to your Codolio Workspace. You never have to visit the Codolio website to do this!

Scenario B: Revising an Existing Question

You are revisiting a problem you solved months ago.

  1. Open the extension.
  2. It detects that the question is “Already in Workspace.”
  3. View Notes: You can see the notes you wrote previously right there in the extension popup. This is perfect for quick revision without switching tabs.
  4. Update: Want to add a new observation? Edit your notes or add a new tag directly from the extension and click Update.

5. Important: Manual Sync

Please note that the extension does not automatically detect when you click “Submit” on LeetCode/GFG.

  • You must open the extension and click “Save” to add the question or mark it as solved in Codolio.
  • This gives you full control over what goes into your tracker and ensures only the questions you want to track are added.
