EcoSurf Analyser 🌱
Measure the ecological impact of websites you visit in real-time
EcoSurf Analyser is a browser extension that displays the ecological score of any webpage directly in your browser's navigation bar. See at a glance whether a website is environmentally friendly or not!
🌍 Why EcoSurf?
With the growing environmental impact of digital technologies, understanding the carbon footprint of the websites we visit is crucial. EcoSurf Analyser makes this information accessible with a simple grading system from A (eco-friendly) to G (high impact).
✨ Features
- Real-time ecological assessment of any website
- Simple A-G grading system visible in your browser's toolbar
- Automatic analysis of websites not yet in the database
- Works across popular browsers
📥 Installation
From Official Stores
Manual Installation (Firefox)
- Download the repository
- Open Firefox and navigate to
about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox - Click on "Load Temporary Add-on..."
- Select the
manifest.jsonfile located in the EcoSurfAnalyser folder
🔍 How It Works
- When you visit a website, EcoSurf contacts the EcoIndex API to check if that site has been analyzed
- If data exists, you'll see the ecological score (A-G) in your browser's toolbar
- If no data exists, EcoSurf requests a new analysis from the EcoIndex API
- Using a smart heuristic approach, the extension will periodically check for new results
🧪 Technical Details
EcoSurf Analyser integrates with the EcoIndex API, which measures:
- Page weight
- DOM complexity
- Server requests
- And many other factors that impact a site's carbon footprint
