nextpage: A Firefox Add-on for Efficient Page Scrolling

'nextpage' is a Firefox add-on that allows for seamless online reading. It redefines the SPC key to scroll the page, and when at the bottom of a page it navigates to the next one. It supports English, Chinese, and German web pages and provides user-customizable key-bindings. This add-on also prefetches the next page to speed up loading time. It respects user privacy and does not collect any data.

Add-on summary

When reading online documents or novels, I usually use SPC to scroll page. But SPC doesn't go to next page automatically. This add-on rebinds SPC key so that it scrolls page when there is more on the page, it goes to next page when you are at the bottom of a page. You can also press n key anytime to go to next page directly. From v2.12.0, it also prerender or prefetch next page link to speed up page load.

nextpage is free software released under GPLv3. The source code is hosted at github.
