This is an extension for Google Chrome that allows you to preview links on a website without having to leave the page. It uses an iframe to load the preview and a CORS proxy to bypass the CORS policy.
## Installation
1. Download the extension from the [releases](https://github.com/ipriyam26/preview/releases) page. & unzip it
2. Extension Icon > Manage Extensions > Turn Developer Mode on > click Load Unpacked > select the downloaded folder
3. Click on "Add Extension" to install it.
## Usage
1. Navigate to a website that contains links.
2. Hover over a link to view a preview of the linked page in an iframe.
3. Move your cursor away from the link to hide the preview.
## Features
- Preview links without leaving the page.
- Customizable styles with CSS
- CORS proxy for cross-origin issues
## Create own Proxy Server from here
