Augmented browsing

Web augmentation is the process of modifying or enriching existing web pages by adding new features, altering layouts, or injecting additional data at the client side.^[1]^[2]^[3] Common methods include installing browser extensions, using userscripts (client-side scripts), or applying custom stylesheets. These techniques empower users to customize or enhance how they view and interact with online content.^[4]^[5]^[6]^[7]^[8]^[9]^[10]
