It counts all the words in a document, but I need to count the words in a highlighted paragraph.

characteristics: minimalistic, unobtrusive, simple — great overall !!! very good extension, helps me a lot whenever im writing because i get curious and also need to check how much words im inputting into a doc :) i wish that it was automatic though.. still a great extension however since it pulls you back to reality when you get too deep into writing. hoping for it to be automatic if this ever gets updated..

tbh it keeps saying zero on mine but maybe it because of something else i have open haha btw thannks Sparsh Banerjee, i didn't know ctrl+shift+c was a thing before

It works! Automatically displays my word count. The box isn't that big, it's not intrusive. It is a little bright, but honestly, it just reminds me to look at so I meet the word count on my college essays. 👍 The only issue I have with it is that you have to refresh it manually. It needs to be automatic.

It definitely works, but it shows up in a massive blue box at the bottom of my screen. Its easier to just do ctrl+shift+c every time I open docs.

Actually works. Checked it and it works in Chrome, Opera GX, and Brave. Nice job creator, you created a functioning tool that's helpful. The blue color is a little distracting though, perhaps make is transparent?
