UC Grabber Extension

This simple Chrome extension is for University of Chicago students. Specially those who frequently use canvas.uchicago.edu and/or ilykei.com portals in their courses.

By default, these websites have cumbersome steps to batch download course documents belonging to a module or set of modules. This extension enables students to easily download the course materials.
