Focus Dude — Block any websites so you can focus on the web
I made this simple Chrome extension to block a listed website so I can stay focused 🧘♀️ when I'm working with my computer on the web. 🌈

@cn__katie Hey, I'm sorry to hear that. I already submit the extension, but it's still pending review. That's why I share it through Github for installation. You can chat with me on Twitter to setup the extension fastly https://twitter.com/asyr0f
Hey @cn__katie !!! The extension is already published 🥳. Here is the link

You need to read my blog on why I don't do the OFF button (to break the bad habit)
simply copy the listed website and paste it to the notes app to deactivate the extension.
Happy to help you focus on your work :p
🎉🎉🎉 Hi Product Hunters 👋 !!
This is my project that solves my own problem 🚀
🤔 Problem
Sometimes I just have no idea how I can go on reading the news (even something like HackerNews that should be a good source of interesting information 🙂) for hours without really producing anything worthwhile.
It's going to be interesting to see what happens if I block all these sources for a while.
💡 Solution
I made my own Chrome Extension. I name it Focus Dude!!! 🔥.
It has everything I need 🌈 ;
✅ Block a predefined list of distracting websites (Facebook, Twitter, HackerNews...)
✅ Motivating shitty quotes 😂 for you to get back to work 💪
✅ Regex support
✅ By definition, it is a simple extension
I hope you like it and solve your own problem too !!!
I also write ✍️ a blog post on why I build this simple thing 😉;

Hey @fajarsiddiq , thanks for the feedback. Happy to help you get the work done :P
It would be nice if you were immediately thrown into the program in which you work
@alex_terentiev Yeah, there is a 1-2 sec buffer. That will be my next focus on improving it. Thanks for the feedback :P
