  description

  Replace part of the URL of the page you are currently viewing in Google Chrome and open the replaced URL in a separate tab.
  The biggest advantage is that the path under the root is automatically complemented to another domain, eliminating the troublesome copy-paste work.
  
  It's common to have multiple domains for a single project, such as production, staging, local, and test environments. It is very useful when you want to check the display of the page currently open in the production environment in the local environment.
  
  It can be used to simply switch domains, and if you are an EC site operator, registering multiple product numbers that you often compare will eliminate the need to copy and paste each product ID on the product detail page. increase.
  
  I would especially like web coders and web engineers to use it, who often compare it with the staging environment or production environment after coding in the test environment. Of course, I think it's a useful tool for web directors as well. I would appreciate it if everyone involved in coding could use it.

  One-click domain switcher for Production, Staging, and Development (Local) environments.
  This Chrome extension allows you to switch between environments with a single click while preserving the current page's URL path and query parameters. By clicking the icon (or pressing Ctrl+Shift+↑), all registered environment URLs are listed, allowing you to move between them without copying and pasting.
  
  Perfect for situations like:
  
  Opening a page you're viewing in production directly in your local or staging environment.
  
  Eliminating the manual task of retyping URLs for different environments.
  
  Quickly comparing the same page (product details, articles, etc.) across multiple domains.
  
  Simply register your project name and domains in the options screen. It supports multi-domain and multi-project setups. Highly recommended for web coders, frontend engineers, web directors, and anyone frequently jumping between environments.
