About

This extension was built to solve a very specific annoyance I encountered while developing certain types of web applications:

When working locally and testing a feature that requires a redirect to a predefined URL (not localhost), I found myself having to edit the URL in my browser to keep all the newly added path and parameters, but replace the host/domain with localhost to continue debugging.

This extension might only be handy for web developers who encounter this scenario, but it essentially let's you "swap" the domain/host of any website with another value that you define.

For example, you can swap 
"https://www.some-app.xyz/path/page?param=value"
with:
"http://localhost:1234/path/page?param=value"

If you're not sure if this would be helpful, then you probably don't need it!  :)
