URL Switch - Bidirectional URL Converter Chrome Extension

URL Switch is a powerful Chrome extension designed to seamlessly switch between related websites through bidirectional URL conversion and redirection. Whether you want to toggle between github.com and github.dev or other paired sites, this tool enables quick and flexible navigation.

Key Features:

- Bidirectional URL Conversion: Effortlessly switch between related URLs (e.g., github.com ↔ github.dev)  
- Powerful Rule Management: Create, edit, and organize URL conversion rules with ease  
- Group Organization: Manage your rules in logical groups such as GitHub, StackOverflow, etc.  
- Flexible Control: Global toggle for the extension and per-group enabling/disabling  
- Auto-Redirect Mode: Automatically redirects based on your configured rules  
- Import/Export: Backup and share your rules seamlessly  

Installation:

1. Download the latest release ZIP from the [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/pyth0nb3st/URLSwitch/releases).  
2. Extract the ZIP file locally.  
3. Navigate to `chrome://extensions` in Chrome.  
4. Enable Developer Mode on the top-right corner.  
5. Click "Load unpacked" and select the extracted folder.  

*Coming soon to the Chrome Web Store!*

Usage:

- Navigate to any website you want to switch from.  
- Click the URL Switch icon in the browser toolbar.  
- Choose the appropriate redirect option.  
- Optionally, enable "Auto Redirect" to let the extension switch URLs automatically based on your rules.

Example URL Pattern:

- From: `^https?://github\.com/([^/]+/[^/]+)(?:/.*)?$`  
- To: `https://github.dev/$1`

This converts URLs like `https://github.com/username/repo` to `https://github.dev/username/repo`.
