🌴 Enhanced Slack

This is a proof of concept to test the idea of enhancing Slack.app.

Current features:

• Syntax highlight using highlight.js
• Double click to edit message

Next up:

• Hot code reloading (no need to restart Slack.app)
• Make default features configurable
• Plugins (inject your own css & js)
• Documentation

Feel free to PR/open an issue with suggestions/beautifications! 👌

Install

git clone git@github.com:albinekb/enhanced-slack.git
cd enhanced-slack
yarn
yarn run inject

Running inject will:

• Backup the original app.asar
• Extract the app.asar archive
• Add some js to it
• Re-pack the app.asar

Restart Slack, you should now see syntax highlighting 💅

Remove

yarn run eject

Running eject will:

• Restore the original app.asar
• Cleanup build files
