But before diving into the details, let me share the story behind the creation of this time-saving tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\ud83d\udcd6 The Story<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While working on a recent project that involved implementing authentication in a React app, I found myself constantly adding and editing cookies manually. It was a tedious process: right-clicking, inspecting, navigating to the Application tab, selecting the right domain, and then copying, editing, or adding cookies. This process had to be repeated frequently while testing different login scenarios.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This repetitive task was slowing down development, so I decided to create something to save time and effort. That\u2019s how <strong>Cookie Control<\/strong> was born\u2014a tool designed to simplify cookie management for developers like myself. Instead of navigating through multiple steps, I built an extension that allows you to <strong>view, edit, add, delete, and search cookies<\/strong> directly from your browser in just a few clicks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\ud83c\udf1f What Is <strong>Cookie Control<\/strong>?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cookie Control<\/strong> is a browser extension that makes cookie management intuitive and efficient. Whether you\u2019re working on a <strong>React app<\/strong> like I was or any other web development project, <strong>Cookie Control<\/strong> is here to streamline your workflow by giving you direct access to cookies without switching between tabs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.santoshkori.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/promo-big.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"410\" src=\"https:\/\/www.santoshkori.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/promo-big-1024x410.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1514\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.santoshkori.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/promo-big-1024x410.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.santoshkori.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/promo-big-300x120.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.santoshkori.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/promo-big-768x307.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.santoshkori.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/promo-big.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Get Cookie Control on Chrome<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/chromewebstore.google.com\/detail\/cookie-control\/akhcndhfmiiajmnbpknebmphcfjpjcch\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Install from Chrome Web Store<\/a><br><strong>Get Cookie Control on Firefox<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/addons.mozilla.org\/en-US\/firefox\/addon\/cookie-control\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Install from Firefox Add-ons<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\ud83d\udcbb Built for Web Developers, WordPress, and Shopify Developers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For web developers, including <strong>WordPress<\/strong> and <strong>Shopify<\/strong> developers, dealing with cookies is an integral part of the development process.
