Jira HotLinker is a free Chrome extension developed by Willem. This handy add-on falls under the Browsers category, specifically as an Add-ons & Tools subcategory. With Jira HotLinker, users can enjoy quick access to Jira metadata by simply hovering over ticket numbers.

By default, the extension enables a tooltip on GitHub when hovering over a Jira ticket number or a ticket link. Additionally, users have the option to add new domains where the tooltip functionality can be activated. This flexibility ensures that Jira HotLinker can be tailored to individual preferences and work seamlessly across various platforms.

Key features of Jira HotLinker include displaying the ticket title and link to Jira, related pull requests, descriptions, attachments, issue type/status/priority, comment count, and plain text comments. Users can also configure the domains where the plugin is active by simply clicking on the extension icon. Furthermore, the extension allows users to pin a ticket on the screen by dragging the title, adding convenience and accessibility.

Jira HotLinker prioritizes user privacy by not storing any user data whatsoever. It only requires access to the websites where the plugin is intended for use and does not ask for any Jira password or username. While still experimental, the extension should also work on Google Docs, expanding its potential applications.

With Jira HotLinker, managing Jira tickets becomes more efficient and streamlined, thanks to its quick access to Jira metadata and its user-friendly interface. Whether you're working on GitHub or other platforms, this extension enhances your ticket management experience without compromising your privacy.
