Add-on summary
Archive of our Own is an amazing fanfiction website, and they make it easy for users to download stories so they can read offline. However, their website doesn't offer an easy way to download an entire series.
This add-on adds a single button "Download Series" to any Ao3 series webpage (while logged in), that automates the process of downloading each of the fanfics included in the series.
User reviews
Works perfectly. Downloads everything quickly and in the order they're supposed to be in (though I personally add the corresponding number in front of the name just to be on the safe side). It's been immensely helpful for some of the longer series I've been saving!
**I see that a common complaint is that it doesn't merge all of the series into one file, and I feel the need to remind you that the series is still individual fics. They are not chapters. Even if they are related to each other and listed in a chronological/chapter style, they are still posted as their own individual works and thus will be downloaded and saved as such. Please keep that in mind before using this, the creator made a great tool and it does exactly what they intended for it to do :)

Great addon! :D
Can you make an addon that does the same but for authors/profiles works?
