An omnibox add-on to make templatize frequent URLs, searches and bookmarks as well!

Ever find yourself visiting a search engine (mostly in corporate settings), waiting for it to load and then type in the search term and wait again for the results or searching for something that you know exactly the URL for but don't like typing.

QuickSearch allows you to configure templates and bookmarks with corresponding keywords to quickly execute a template search or URL. It uses the omnibox APIs from the firefox browser and replaces your text totally offline. The extension lets you add any URL you like (with a limitation of a HTTP GET based workflow and only 1 template variable at the time).

Some examples for templates:

• https://crates.io/crates/{{ library }}
• https://docs.python.org/3/library/{{ package }}.html
• https://internal.wiki.com/?q={{ search term }}

This addon can save that one second off your hyper-concentrated developer time when you are absorbed on working something.
