MyLMS Downloader

Problem

Navigating Eduvos MyLMS to locate and download course materials is repetitive and slow. Files are scattered across weekly modules, requiring tedious clicking through nested pages. Multi-chapter books lack single-document export options, and mandatory weekly feedback surveys gate access to future module sections, disrupting student workflows.

Solution

MyLMS Downloader is a Manifest v3 Chrome extension that injects lightweight controls directly into the course interface. It enables single-click and background bulk downloads of lecture slides, documents, archives, and books. All files are automatically saved and organized into a clean folder hierarchy on disk (Downloads/MyLMS/[Course]/[Section]/).

Features

Inline Activity Badges

• Direct Action Badges — Injected next to every downloadable resource on course pages for immediate, single-click downloads.
• Multi-Format Support — Handles PDF slides, Word documents, PowerPoint presentations, Excel sheets, and ZIP archives.
• Clean File Naming — Derives clean, structured filenames from the page DOM without redirect pages.

Bulk Downloads

• Active Section Download — Downloads all resources inside the currently opened module tile with one click.
• Entire Course Download — Queues every resource across the entire course page and processes them sequentially in the background.

Book-to-PDF Export

Automated Feedback Completion
