I just noticed there’s a fibery extension! I would dearly love to see it add the capability to catch any Command-K (search) shortcut keypress and pop up the fibery search dialog, then open a new tab with the selected (or created) entity rendered. That would save a huge amount of jumping around between browser windows and tabs for me! It would mean I no longer had to remember where my fibery tab was and switch to it, in order to interact with fibery: and 99% of my interactions with fibery start by summoning the search dialog in any case: so this would basically mean that fibery was directly accessible, no matter what’s open in my current browser tab.

FYI it’s possible to simulate a web app using chrome, see here:

> [@\[DONE\] Desktop App (PWA)](https://community.fibery.io/t/desktop-app-pwa/2344/4):
>
> Although it’s not the same as a PWA, I assume you know of the Menu → More Tools → Create Shortcut option in Chrome? Brings you some of the benefits you mention, at least. I’m not sure what’s involved in creating a PWA. Worth looking at.

This can be useful when you want Fibery to operate as a unique instance as opposed to one of many browser tabs.  
It makes Fibery easier to find, at least 🙂

Yes, good point: much prefer that you guys enhance the extension though 😉
