My first Chrome Extension

It was a hot summer weekend. I planned to do something creative, I decided to make a Chrome extension. Quickly googled down the documentation here. Created a manifest JSON, and linked it with my browser. Wow that was it. It was simple. Just create an HTML file link it to the manifest and that will act like an extension!

Quickly created a TODO app in plain Javascript, and boom, it was working as expected.

To publish it, I followed the instruction, paid to Google Developer for the account, and published it. It took 2 days for review process, but now it was on the web store.

This was one of the successful mini project launched by me.

Yeah, sometimes mini projects give you the kick you want to get inspired and stay motivated. Hope will continue to post updates.

Have made it open source, here is the git repo

Also do add the extension here, also support if you like the work, and to keep me motivated.
