GitHub Enhancer Chromium extension features #200
Description
Tuesday
What a ride. The very first card I ever contributed to this "GitHub as a blogging CMS" project (what eventually became StudyDash!) was on Monday - May 3, 2021. 72 days later, we're still going strong and have even picked up some new friends along the way! 🥳
Since GitHub was never designed to be a blogging CMS, there have always been some features that were missing which are common on other blogosphere platforms (eg. Blogger or WordPress). Once I dug into extension development more, I realized this was a golden opportunity to now support some of these features!
Thus, moving forward, I'm going to keep track of all of the extension features in this card. @anitabe404 had an awesome suggestion to include gif support! 😀 I've still got to figure out the details, but to start with, below are the gifs and their syntax I'm going to initially support. If anyone has any suggestions for additional gifs, please lmk your favorites! 😄
Gifs:
| Syntax | Description |
|---|---|
::gif/picard:: |
 |
::gif/leo:: |

YouTube embeds:
I've always loved embedding YouTube video iframes directly into posts. High time GitHub Issues gets the feature! Ie. People should be able to directly play the video without ever leaving GitHub. The syntax will look like this:
| Syntax | Description |
|---|---|

Extra/Fun 🎉
Today, I watched Black Widow at home; it was good! For me, personally, David Harbour totally stole the show as Red Guardian and was my favorite character in the movie. 🥳 I've loved him ever since his The Newsroom and Stranger Things days so this was a fun trip to watch him don the suit of a Soviet superhero! 😄
PS. This scene absolutely had me in stiches. 😂
