What is a Bookmarklet?
A bookmarklet is a tiny JavaScript program that can be saved as a bookmark in your web browser. When you click on the bookmark, it executes the JavaScript code, providing additional functionality to your browser. This can range from simple tasks, such as altering the appearance of a webpage, to more complex actions, like interacting with web forms or running custom searches.
How Bookmarklets Work
Bookmarklets work by modifying the Document Object Model (DOM) of a webpage or interacting with the browser's features through JavaScript.
