A simple interface for formatting Letterboxd reviews, comments, and more.
Minimal, light-weight, open-source extension for implementing the somewhat "hidden" formatting options in Letterboxd, similar to those in the official mobile app. It also implements the ability to preview your formatted post before submitting.
The formatting tags can be inserted using the on-screen buttons, or using the following keyboard shortcuts:
- Bold: (Cmd/Ctrl) + b
- Italic: (Cmd/Ctrl) + i
- Hyperlink: (Cmd/Ctrl) + Shift + l
- Quote: (Cmd/Ctrl) + Shift + k
Formatting tags will automatically wrap a selected area of text. Otherwise, the tags will be inserted at the caret position. Keyboard shortcuts can be disabled in the extension options.

- (2023-08-22) Zarahi Sanchez: A tool so simple you would think Letterboxd would have implemented it by now or even offered it as a paid feature. Thanks a million, I've spent years wanting an extension that does exactly this!
