Same. This extension was born out of that frustration: a single click (or Ctrl-click) to jump between environments without fat-fingering your URL bar.\n\n## Installation\n\n1.  Download or clone this repository.\n2.  Go to **chrome://extensions** in your Chrome browser.\n3.  Enable **Developer mode** (toggle in the top-right corner).\n4.  Click **Load unpacked** and select this project folder.\n\nThat’s it! You should see the little toggle icon in your extensions area.\n\n## Usage\n\n-   **Click** the icon. If your current site’s domain matches one of your defined environments, you’ll see a list of available servers (DEV, TEST, LIVE, etc.).\n-   **Click** an environment to switch in the same tab, or **Ctrl-click** (Cmd-click on Mac, or middle-click, or right-click) to open in a new tab.\n-   If you don’t have an environment set up for your current domain, you’ll see “No multidev environments detected.” You can quickly jump to the Options page and add one.\n-  **Optional** - Pin the extension to your toolbar for easy access.\n\n### Pro Tips\n\n-   You can reorder environments or edit their domains in the Options page.\n-   The extension icon will look like it’s switched **ON** (toggle-on) if you’re on a recognized domain, and **OFF** (toggle-off) otherwise.\n-   You can just enter the domains (e.g., `example.com`) or the full URL (e.g., `https://example.com`) and/or the port (e.g., `127.0.0.1:8080`) for each environment and the extension will handle the rest.\n-   When you install the extension, it will automatically add the sites that I am working on right now. You can remove them and replace them with your own.\n-   To add a new environment, just click the extension icon and then click the **Add a multidev environment** link.\n-   Because this extension is super specialized, it’s not in the Chrome Web Store (yet). If it magically gets more than 1,000 stars here on GitHub, I’ll publish it. \n\n## Contributing\n\nIf you see a bug or want to add a feature, open a PR or file an issue. If you want to complain about how you break into hives every time you see the word “multidev,” you can do that too.\n\n----------\n\n**Happy server switching!** Go forth and dev/test/live your heart out with fewer keystrokes.","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Frayhollister%2Fserver-switch","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Frayhollister%2Fserver-switch","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Frayhollister%2Fserver-switch/lists"}
