Canvas files Downloader Extension
🤦🏻♂️ The purpose of creating Canvas Files Downloader extension is to facilitate the process of downloading files especially in the modules tab/path; because currently in order for students to download a file , they have to make multiple of clicks to do so.
🎯 The alternative solution is to allow students to either download all attachments by selecting all or download only the selected ones in modules, pages, assignments, and wiki tab or path. If there is an attachment in any of these paths, users will get the download button.
💡 To better use Canvas files Downloader to full extent:

💡💡💡 This extension works for all schools that use Canvas Learning Management System (LMS) / Instructure
