About this extension
The JDA Browser Extension is the official companion for JDA (Jyotismoy's Download Accelerator), a high-performance download manager written in Rust backend. It intercepts browser downloads and routes them directly to the JDA desktop app for multi-threaded acceleration.

How it Works

When you click a download link, this extension catches the request, captures the necessary authentication details (like cookies, referer, and user-agent), and hands them off silently in the background to the native JDA client. The JDA desktop engine then takes over, downloading the file in parallel chunks to maximize your bandwidth.

Key Features
  • Silent Interception: Seamlessly redirects new downloads in the background using a local web server connection.
  • On/Off Toggle: Turn the accelerator on or off instantly via a clean extension popup interface.
  • Deep Link Fallback: Standard custom protocol (jda://) integration to trigger JDA even if the local server is temporarily unreachable.
  • Privacy First: All data is processed locally. Zero data collection or external transmission.



Prerequisites

To use this extension, you must have the JDA desktop client installed on your machine. Learn more and get the installer here:
