Spotlight-style GIF launcher โ stay on the page
Reaction Launcher is a free, open Chrome extension (Manifest V3) that gives you a fast, keyboard-driven way to find and share reaction GIFs without leaving the page you are on. Press the shortcut to open a lightweight overlay โ think Spotlight or Raycast, but for GIFs.
Type a query, navigate with arrow keys, press Enter. No account, no social feed, no user-generated content โ purely a search-and-insert utility powered by GIPHY. UI in English and Korean.
