This is a small project created mainly to learn about Chrome extensions and recommendation systems. The recommendation system is a simple content-based system that uses the novel's description, genres, tags, rating, and rank to find similar novels. The similarity is calculated using cosine similarity. The recommendation system is running on pythonanywhere, and the extension is using a simple REST API to get the recommendations. Please note that since I'm using the free tier of Pythonanywhere, the API might be slow at times.
