Weighted Read Assist Extension

Lets you customize text elements on any webpage according to your preference. Tweak properties like font family, size, weight, color aswell as experimental methods of highlighting parts of words to increase readability.

While not aimed at mitigating any specific type of reading difficulty, this extension is inspired by my own experince of reading with ADHD. I'm sharing it in case it might help someone else.

This is still an early BETA. Planned updates include useability, more lenient permissions, more supported languages and others.
