LinkedIn Post Formatter ✨

A lightweight Chrome Extension that brings beautiful Unicode-based text styling (like bold, italic, 𝓈𝒸𝓇𝒾𝓅𝓉, 𝔤𝔬𝔱𝔥𝔦𝔠, etc.) directly to your LinkedIn post editor. Highlight your text, click a button, and instantly format your posts without leaving the site.


🚀 Features

  • ✅ Bold, Italic, Underline, and Strikethrough formatting
  • ✅ 15+ Unicode style variants: script, gothic, fullwidth, circled, etc.
  • ✅ Keyboard shortcuts:
    • Cmd/Ctrl + B → Bold
    • Cmd/Ctrl + I → Italic
    • Cmd/Ctrl + U → Underline
  • ✅ Toolbar injected directly into the LinkedIn composer
  • ✅ Dropdown style picker with live previews
  • ✅ Works natively inside LinkedIn with no account or backend

📅 How It Works

  1. Install the extension from the Chrome Web Store
  2. Open LinkedIn and start a new post
  3. Highlight any text
  4. Use the toolbar buttons or keyboard shortcuts to format
  5. Your styles are preserved when you post — no HTML, just Unicode!

🎨 Examples

𝗕𝗼𝗹𝗱 — because you mean business
𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘤 — for soft takes
𝓈𝒸𝓇𝒾𝓅𝓉 — for elegant drama
𝖌𝖔𝖙𝖍𝖎𝖈 — because you code at night
ⓒⓘⓡⓒⓛⓔⓓ — just for fun

💡 Why Unicode?

No HTML, no spans, no custom fonts. Everything is encoded with special Unicode characters, so your formatting survives even after LinkedIn strips HTML formatting on publish.
