Layoutify: Improved Layout for Instagram

Important

Unfortunately, I no longer have the time needed to maintain this extension. Instagram does too many changes to their website for me to keep up. I'm thankful for all the users and support across all the years. As of 2nd December 2023, I've unpublished the extension from the Webstore.

The default Instagram.com layout is not optimized for the desktop. This extension improves this.

Download from Chrome Web Store.

Development

Do you want to help with developing? You're very welcome.

To get this extension running (if you're a dev), follow these steps:

1. Download the ZIP archive of the repository.
2. Unpack somewhere.
3. Run npm install in the folder (make sure you have NodeJS installed)

To load the Extension in Chrome follow these steps:

Chrome
Open chrome://extensions Check the Developer mode checkbox Click on the Load unpacked extension button Select the src folder (where-you-unpacked-the-ZIP/src)

Starting the Dev Server

1. Run npm run start
2. Open the Options page (right click the Extension Icon in Chrome)

It will auto reload when you do changes in src/components.

This also works if you want to debug CSS/JS on Instagram.com.

I'm always available to help!
