ECMAScript specifications are notoriously hard to read — even for experienced developers. Dense algorithmic language, abstract notation, and layers of technical jargon can make understanding the spec feel like a full-time job. SpecsPlain is a Chrome extension that fixes that problem with a single click.
Powered by Google's PaLM AI, SpecsPlain adds an "Explain" button directly inside TC39 specification documents. Click it, and the extension instantly generates a clear, human-readable explanation of the algorithm or specification you're looking at. Currently focused on ECMAScript specs, it's the browser tool every JavaScript developer wished existed.
