Leer Tranquilo

Inspi## Inspiration

Reading news or articles online is often stressful: comments reload or shift while you’re trying to focus. I wanted a simple way to reduce that noise.

What it does

Leer Tranquilo is a prototype browser extension. It injects a small control in the page to help keep comment sections expanded and stable, aiming for a calmer reading flow.

How we built it

• JavaScript content script (content.js)
  
• Minimal CSS for a floating button
  
• Tested in Brave/Chrome
  

Challenges

• Many sites re-render their DOM, making it hard to reliably freeze elements.
  
• Some features (like “Expand & Freeze”) work partially or intermittently.
  

What we learned

Even tiny extensions can improve reading comfort. DOM manipulation is trickier than expected across different sites.

What's next

• Stabilize the “Expand & Freeze” feature
  
• Broaden support for more news sites
  
• Publish on Chrome Web Store when mature
  

Built with

• JavaScript
  
• Chrome Extensions API
