On this Tuesday and Wednesday, I joined the CyberSec conference in Taiwan.

And I listen to the talks about DevSecOps and Kubernetes security.

It's very helpful for me to have the tutorial guide about securing my DevOps flow :).

 chrome.tabs.executeScript(null, {file: "content_script.js"});
});

content_script.js

  var importObject = { imports: { imported_func: arg => console.log(arg) } };

  .then(obj => obj.instance.exports.exported_func());
