  🚍 Lille Bus — Live Countdown
  
  See exactly how many minutes until your next bus — right on the Chrome toolbar icon.
  
  Built for daily commuters in the Lille metropolitan area (France), this extension pulls real-time departure data from the Ilévia network and displays a live countdown badge that updates automatically.
  
  ━━━ FEATURES ━━━
  
  🔴 LIVE BADGE • Minutes remaining displayed directly on the Chrome toolbar icon • Auto-refreshes at your chosen interval (5s / 10s / 15s / 30s / 60s) • Color-coded urgency: blue (> 5 min) → orange (≤ 5 min) → red (≤ 1 min) • Subtle glow pulse effect when data is live • Automatic fallback to static timetables when the API is unavailable
  
  👁️ MULTI-WATCHER • Watch multiple stop / line / direction combinations at once • The badge always shows the shortest wait time across all watchers • Each watcher shows its own live countdown, urgency color, and live/scheduled indicator • Add, remove, or clear watchers in one click
  
  ⏸ PAUSE / RESUME • Pause all API calls with one click — badge shows "II" in grey • State persists across popup closes and browser restarts
  
  ⚙️ PREFERENCES • Light & Dark theme (follows system by default) • French & English interface • Configurable refresh interval • Glow effect toggle
  
  🎨 POLISHED INTERFACE • Collapsible selection for stop, line, and direction • Official Ilévia line colors • Fully localized (FR / EN) • Modern glass-morphism design
