Search function for buying products from Non-Profits/Charities

[g8228g]

Hi everyone! looking for some advice.

Is there a way to create an add-on that provides alternatives to Amazon, Walmart, etc. when searching for products? Potentially providing a list of companies or nonprofits that have the requested item(s) and how much they donate to charity, etc.

For Example, lets say someone was looking to buy coffee.
Instead of providing results from Amazon, Walmart, Target, or even specific brands like Nestle, Folgers, Starbucks, etc…
The add-on would provide options like Good.Store, showcasing 100% of profits to charity

Or lets say someone is looking for a coffee shop in a Map such as google or bing maps.
Could you provide results prioritizing shops owned locally and/or dedicating profits to charities?

I really am a complete novice. I’ve only ever taken one or two comp-sci classes. I’m just looking to find out if this is possible, or if an add-on is even the right avenue to take to develop this type of tool.

Sorry if this is frivolous, or doesn’t belong on this forum.

I’m doing something similar. When in a store, on a product page, I give you an alert if the product you’re looking at is available on a second-hand store.

I have a content-script for each store. The script mostly grabs the product name, or part of it, and sends this to the background script. The background script does a search on a second-hand site. If a match there, I store the search link + number of hits and create an alert. Then you can click the addon icon and get the popup.html which runs the popup script that gets the list of search-links.

You’ll have to create a content script for each site you want to target and then map this to each site you want to send traffic to.
