    Hard Reload gives web developers a fast, one-click way to force-refresh the active tab, bypassing the browser cache entirely.                             
                                                                                                                                                                
    Features:                                                                                                                                                 
    • Hard Reload — reloads the current tab with cache bypass (like Ctrl+Shift+R, but one click)                                                              
    • Clear Cache & Reload — wipes the browser cache for the current site, then reloads                                                                       
    • Optional Local Storage clearing — toggle to also clear localStorage and sessionStorage when clearing cache                                              
    • Keyboard shortcut — Alt+Shift+R for instant hard reload without opening the popup
