FicLab: Easy FanFiction Downloading Add-on For Firefox

FicLab is a Firefox extension created to help users download fanfiction as ebook files easily. Users simply navigate to the fanfiction story, click the FicLab 'save' button, and the story is converted into the user's chosen format - such as ePub, Kindle, PDF, markdown, plain text, MS Word (docx) and HTML. Users can also independently download cover images as PNG files. Although the add-on uses an 'access all sites' permission feature, this is strictly used for adding functionality to supported sites; it will never modify or access any site outside of its ebook conversion scope.
