This toggle switch turns its functionality off and on, checks for updates, creates your user script, and opens a dashboard where you manage the Tampermonkey settings and the installed scripts. Similar to Greasemonkey, you manage Tampermonkey using a toggle switch on the address bar. Tampermonkey is available for a range of web browsers. Select the down arrow accompanying the toggle to modify the Greasemonkey settings and open the Firefox User Scripts management interface. Select the monkey toggle switch to enable and disable the Greasemonkey extension. To download it, visit the Greasemonkey download page on the Mozilla add-ons website.Īfter Firefox restarts, a new button in the form of a smiling monkey appears in the browser's address bar. Greasemonkey is only available for Firefox. However, there's no guarantee when it comes to overall safety. The scripts featured here have a significant user base and have proven to be relatively safe.
Browsers don't vet user scripts the same as most extensions.
