Upvote First for StackOverflow Extension
Chrome extension that sorts StackOverflow answers by your upvotes.
Open source
https://github.com/jossef/stackoverflow-upvote-first
Why I did this?
---------------
I find myself re-visit StackOverflow questions I've already read.
When there are multiple answers (and approaches to solve something), I upvote my chosen answer
Some time later, I find myself re-visit that question. Since I want to spare that research i already did in the past, I try to find the upvoted answers made by my user (to get an acknowledge by myself).
Scrolling down?
----------------
What bothers me in this process is the fact that answers aren't always at the top and i have to scroll down to the bottom to see them.
That's sucks. Therefore I made this chrome extension that re-sorts the answers by your votes. For instance, if you upvoted an answer and revisited that question later, it will appear first in the answers list
Background
----------
I suggested this feature on Meta StackExchange. However, upon this day I still waited and it seems this might not got the attention of their Product Manager.
Since I see StackOverflow as an important tool in my daily routine, I implemented this chrome extension as a weekend project mainly to help myself and other developers be more productive :+1:.
