What's included? Basically there are some key features which I lacked most on the Duolingo web app and which absence made me to develop this addon, namely

- writing custom lesson notes,
- quick courses overview.

There are also many other features that are already implemented or are planned in the near future. Don't forget to visit Duolingo Boost's official webpage to learn more about it.

Skeletial (ID: 0000007c61696e5e) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/08/2022 Been using it for a while now, very useful, does exactly what it promises. I just wish it had a few more features, such telling you what words/lessons you haven't practiced in a while, suggesting ways to get a lot of xp, just generally things that would make the extension more helpful/desirable. Still, would definitely recommend!

John Williams (ID: 000000d0cae9d1f7) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 02/03/2022 I tried this 3 years ago, and it didn't work. I just came back and tried it again, and it works pretty well. It's good if you want dark mode.
