Score: 4.7/10 (Innovation: 3, Technical: 4, Documentation: 5, Utility: 7)

Bangs is a Safari Web Extension that brings DuckDuckGo-style search shortcuts (!w, !gh, etc.) to other search engines like Google and Bing, allowing users to search sites directly from the address bar. It's interesting because it ports a popular feature from a privacy-focused search engine to mainstream browsers while maintaining local processing for privacy.

Target audience: frontend devs, backend devs, general users
