Browser Extension

The gdluxx browser extension works to bring gallery-dl right into your browser. Send URLs directly to your gdluxx server without ever leaving your browser.

What It Does

Instead of copying URLs and switching back to gdluxx, you can:

• Send the current tab URL directly to gdluxx
• Right-click an image and send just that image
• Use a keyboard shortcut
• Send multiple URLs at once
• Set custom download directories

It's built to streamline the process.

Browser Support

The extension works on:

• Chrome/Chromium (and should work on any Chrome-based browsers like Brave, Edge, Opera)
• Firefox (and should work on any Firefox-based browsers like Floorp, Librewolf, Waterfox)

Both are officially published to their respective stores.
