A browser extension to export conversations from Teams. I initially needed a readily available tool, I was ready to pay a few bucks for it. Turns out there isn’t an alternative for me because existing ones require instance admin to enable this, Microsoft Graph API permission, or some other requirement which I could not fulfill. Then started vibe coding it. Once it started working, I thought “I’m sure that there are people out there who needs smth like this” and pushed to GitHub and extension stores of popular browsers. Now more than 15000 people use this. https://github.com/gediz/teams-web-chat-exporter

Not sure about the second paragraph, but about first one I kind of agree with "someone else paying the hidden cost". I believe Google, Amazon, Roku, etc. basically pay the ODMs to manufacture the TV for them, and market the devices with affordable prices to acquire more users, in order to gain more usage data from consumers.

I wanted to export long chats from Microsoft Teams but turns out Microsoft Graph API or some PowerShell scripts were necessary. API access is not enabled by our IT manager by default so existing solutions dis not help. So I built (vibe-coded) a browser extension for myself, then decided to open source it. There are still some edges to smooth out but it’s going fine.

Turns out it was a common pain point. Now it has around 800 users in Chrome+Firefox. Mostly chrome.

Sometimes it takes great amount of time to understand a specific flow in any given software that's abstract enough. This is a great concept. I'm ready to pay for it.

I think some of the Zachtronics games may be helpful to learn about Assembly.

Great job. Buttery smooth even on a low end mobile device.
