Chrome extension which dynamically updates bookmarks based on the specified regular expression.
Dynamic Bookmarks Extension
❓ What is this about?
Lately, I found myself wondering too much: \"On what episode was I last on?\", \"What video in a playlist was I last watching?\" and similar. So I decided to solve this problem by creating an extension where bookmarks can update themselves if a certain condition is met.
This allows us to track:
✔️ anime / TV shows
✔️ videos in a YouTube playlist
✔️ last read blog / documentation page
✔️ etc. (basically ANYTHING with URL!)
It also comes with its bookmark manager which lets you easily filter tracked bookmarks, edit the regular expression, etc.
You can also view the history of the 10 most recent links for each dynamic (tracked) bookmark.
To stop tracking a bookmark, just remove the regular expression (RegExp) from it.

🎓 What is \"regular expression\"?
It simply is a sequence of characters that define a search pattern. Ever did CTRL+F to find something on the page? Well, it's pretty much the same thing, but with extra special characters that let your search be more flexible.
In most cases, you won't even have to worry about the RegExp field since the automatically generated value will be good enough, but you might run into rare occasions where the site will be using unique URL notation which would require manual entry of this field.
An example of such a site is animekisa.tv. Let's see how we can generate regular expressions using a very simple tactic.
First, let's click on few episodes:
https://animekisa.tv/mo-dao-zu-shi-season-2-episode-3
https://animekisa.tv/mo-dao-zu-shi-season-2-episode-4
Now ask yourself, what part stays the same? - animekisa.tv/mo-dao-zu-shi-season-2
And that would be our value for the RegExp field!
