Its User-friendly, Beautiful and Simple. \nThe utility is made using HTML, CSS, JavaScript and Chrome's Manifest. The Chrome Extension is activated \u003cb\u003eonly\u003c/b\u003e when user visits the Instagram Profile of someone. On all other pages,\nthis Chrome Extension is disabled. This feature makes more personalized and efficient.\n\n---\n\n\n## BACKGROUND\n\nInstagram doesn't provide the feature to view/download the user's profile pictures and everyone on instagram zooms their browser to see it; still fails to do so. This was the motivation for developing this Project. Initially the idea was to develop a website for \nthis utility, but after research for a better alternative; Chrome Extension seemed to be best fitting for such small but large-audience based application.  \n\n---\n\n## WHY CHROME EXTENSION IS BETTER ALTERNATIVE?\n\nThis utility is for a larger audience for varying age, nationality, literacy etc. Moreover, the Instagram users are always fleeting and scrolling the feed or texting, it is rare that\nthey open a new website by googling just to download the DP. Also, it doesn't seem user-friendly as majority aren't familiar with random websites. Thus, a simple Chrome Extension\ncan be handy and can SAVE developer's Server hosting cost of website to a larger scale. \n\nMoroever, this chrome extension is PAGE-specific and thus avoids the illegal Data-Scrappers to fetch Image Data of the Users from this utility; since this is developed for users.\nAlso, as this is a Chrome Extension, it is completely on Client Side. So no worries for Data-security aspects.\n\n## HOW TO\n\n---\n\n#### Step 1. \nOpen any User's Instagram Profile and then click on the InstaDP Chrome-Extension icon on top taskbar in Google Chrome.\n![InstaDP Downloader](https://github.com/sohamsshah/InstaDP_Downloader/blob/master/demo/1.PNG \"Step 1\")\n\n---\n\n\n### Step 2. \nClick on Download Button\n![InstaDP Downloader](https://github.com/sohamsshah/InstaDP_Downloader/blob/master/demo/2.png \"Step 2\")\n\n---\n\n### Step 3. \nDP Downloaded Successfully!\n![InstaDP Downloader](https://github.com/sohamsshah/InstaDP_Downloader/blob/master/demo/3.PNG \"Step 3\")\n\n---\n\n### Is INACTIVE on other pages:\nInstaDP is inactive on all web pages except Instagram User Profile Page of FORMAT : www.instagram.com/{username}/\n![InstaDP Downloader](https://github.com/sohamsshah/InstaDP_Downloader/blob/master/demo/4.png \"inactive 1\")\n![InstaDP Downloader](https://github.com/sohamsshah/InstaDP_Downloader/blob/master/demo/5.png \"inactive 2\")\n\n---\n---\n\n## How to configure InstaDP in your Chrome?\n\n---\n\n\n### Step 1. \nGo to [chrome://extensions](chrome://extensions)\n![InstaDP Downloader](https://github.com/sohamsshah/InstaDP_Downloader/blob/master/demo/6.png \"Step 1\")\n\n---\n\n### Step 2. \nTURN ON developer Mode.\n![InstaDP Downloader](https://github.com/sohamsshah/InstaDP_Downloader/blob/master/demo/7.png \"Step 2\")\n\n---\n\n### Step 3. \nClick on \"Load Unpacked\" and choose the folder where InstaDP Downloader is saved in your system.
