About

Shortcut to URL is a lightweight Chrome extension for faster browsing with keyboard shortcuts and smart URL redirection.

Open your shortcuts with Cmd+. (Mac) or Ctrl+. (Windows/Linux), then press a single key to jump to any saved site. You can also create redirect rules so matching URLs are automatically sent to the correct destination.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Press Cmd+. (Mac) or Ctrl+. (Windows/Linux) to open the popup.
2. Press a configured key (like "g" for Gmail) to open that site instantly.
3. Add redirect rules in Settings to auto-redirect matching URLs.
4. Choose match type: Contains, Wildcard, or Regex.
5. Enable/disable rules anytime without deleting them.

FEATURES
- Lightning-fast navigation with two keystrokes
- Redirect utility for repetitive URLs (SSO pages, old routes, staging/prod links)
- Flexible matching: Contains, Wildcard, Regex
- Toggle redirect rules on/off with one click
- Loop protection to prevent redirect cycles
- Clean minimal UI with light/dark themes
- Syncs shortcuts and redirect rules via Chrome Sync
- Works on Chrome and Chromium browsers (Edge, Brave, Arc, etc.)

PRIVACY
Your shortcuts and redirect rules are stored in Chrome storage (sync/local). No external servers, no tracking, no ads.
