Open Source Python Browser Extensions and Plugins for Linux

Powerline is a statusline plugin for vim, and provides statuslines and prompts for several other applications, including zsh, bash, tmux, IPython, Awesome, i3 and Qtile. Powerline was completely rewritten in Python to get rid of as much vimscript as possible. This has allowed much better extensibility, leaner and better config files, and a structured, object-oriented codebase with no mandatory third-party dependencies other than a Python interpreter. Using Python has allowed unit testing of all the project code. The code is tested to work in Python 2.6+ and Python 3. Originally created exclusively for vim statuslines, the project has evolved to provide statuslines in tmux and several WMs, and prompts for shells like bash/zsh and other applications. It’s simple to write renderers for any other applications that Powerline doesn’t yet support. JSON is a standardized, simple and easy to use file format that allows for easy user configuration across Powerline’s supported applications.
