Inspiration
The internet is a crude place and sometimes you just want to know what you're getting into. Originally I wanted to censor all the political nonsense that I see on Facebook, but instead I decided to gear it towards the Hack Harassment category and have it warn the user about curse words on a page.
What it does
It is a chrome extension that looks at the script of a page and produces an alert as a warning if there is any inappropriate language on the page when you click the button under the extension icon.
How I built it
I built it using basic JavaScript and HTML.
Challenges I ran into
I had a really hard time figuring out how to actually get the extension to read the contents of the page that is intended to be analyzed.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
I powered through and came up with ~something~ in the end.
What I learned
JavaScript and how it works. I have never really worked with it in such detail before.
What's next for Is it Clean?
I think I would like to actually get it to censor the inappropriate language opposed to just giving a warning about it. That would definitely be a fun project to tackle!
