Lazarus

Lazarus is a simple utility that autosaves everything you type into web forms, text areas, and content-editable fields (like Gmail or Notion). If something goes wrong, your draft is safe on your machine.

I built this because existing tools were either ugly, abandoned, or couldn't handle modern web apps like React, Shadow DOMs, and iFrames.

What it actually does:

1. Passive Recording: It listens for input events in the background. If you type it, Lazarus saves it.

2. Local Storage Only: Your data never leaves your browser. There is no cloud sync, no analytics, and no third-party server.

3. Modern Web Support: Works on complex sites where other extensions fail (Notion, Gmail, Reddit, VS Code Web).

Why use this over others?

1. No Bloat: It lives in the Chrome Side Panel. It doesn't inject ugly icons or floating buttons into your webpages.

2. Open Source: You don't have to trust my word on privacy. You can audit the code yourself on GitHub.

3. Smart Versioning: It doesn't just save the last thing you typed. It keeps a timeline of versions, so you can revert to what you wrote 10 minutes ago.

Perfect for:

1. Recovering long emails or Jira tickets after a crash.

2. Saving detailed Reddit comments or forum posts.

3. Keeping a local backup of Notion/Docs edits during connection issues.

Privacy Policy in plain English: This extension has no external tracking. It does not send data to me or Google. It simply writes text to your browser's chrome.storage.local. If you uninstall the extension, your data is deleted.
