Make It Pop lets you define groups of phrases (like "code review", "pull request", etc.) and automatically highlights them when you visit websites. Perfect for:
- Spotting key terms while browsing job postings
- Highlighting important concepts while reading documentation
- Making specific phrases stand out on any website
- Color Groups: Create groups of phrases with custom colors for light and dark modes
- Domain Control: Choose which websites use which phrase groups

- Easy Management: Simple settings page to manage all your groups and domains
- Firefox (Desktop & Mobile): Install from Firefox Add-ons - fully approved and listed
- Edge: Available on Edge Add-ons (pending final approval)
