tabwords

tabwords is a Chrome extension that displays a randomly chosen word from Other-Wordly - a logophile's treasure trove of obscure words - on each new tab. Check out the demo.

How I Built tabwords

1. Compiled list of image URLs from all Other-Wordly posts using the Tumblr API via main.py.
2. Pulled random image URL from list in main.js, and displayed it in index.html.
3. Set up Chrome extension framework in manifest.json.
4. Created icons using Canva.
