Your intelligent companion for tracking every image download โ with complete context, always.
๐ง What is SmartShot?
SmartShot is a revolutionary Chrome extension that transforms how you manage image downloads. Unlike traditional file managers, SmartShot captures the complete story behind every image.
Whether you're collecting memes, reference images, research graphics, or saving design inspiration โ SmartShot quietly logs crucial metadata that Windows Explorer simply can't provide:
Smart Filename Tracking
Records exact filenames with intelligent cleanup, removing unnecessary timestamps while preserving meaningful names.
Source URL Preservation
Never lose track of where an image originated. Direct URLs are saved for easy back-tracking to original sources.
Complete Context Capture
Preserves the webpage title and URL where you found the image, maintaining valuable context that explains why you saved it.
Precise Timestamps
Every download logged with exact date and time, enabling powerful chronological organization and search.
It's like having a digital memory for your downloads โ perfect for curious minds, content creators, researchers, and anyone who values organization.

๐ SmartShot File Architecture
SmartShot is more than just a pretty UI โ it's a finely-tuned machine made of multiple working parts. Here's how it's structured under the hood:
manifest.json โ The blueprint of the extension. It defines permissions, background scripts, icons, action popups, and everything Chrome needs to understand SmartShot.
popup.html โ The extension's control center. It provides a lightweight interface users interact with when clicking the Chrome extension icon.
popup.js โ The brains behind popup.html. Handles user interactions like toggling screenshot view, searching, or applying filters โ all from the popup.
background.js โ The always-on observer. Listens for download and screenshot events in real time, captures metadata, and writes them into storage like a silent ninja.
history.json โ The structured vault. Stores all screenshot and download metadata in a machine-readable format. Even if you uninstall and reinstall โ your story stays intact.
history.html โ Your visual time machine. It reads from history.json and presents a beautiful, searchable, human-friendly timeline of everything you've saved.
This modular architecture gives SmartShot superpowers: it separates logic, UI, and storage into neat components, making it easy to maintain, expand, and debug. It's like Lego โ clean, reusable, and fun to build with.
