👩🏻‍🏫 Notes

Browser binary paths needs to changed based on the OS and install locations in package.json. The default binary locations work for Mac OS.

• Locate reload:chrome command in package.json
• Change chrome path after --chromium-bianry to chrome's path in your os
• Example, /Applications/Google\\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\\ Chrome
• Do that for every browser

Similarly, you can change the starting pages in browsers by changing --start-url varibale in reload:<browser_name> command

Content Scripts, Popup and Options Page support React

You can choose to not use react in any of these, just remove the react imports

React, Preact, Typescript or PostCSS are all optional

For Disabling TS

• Just change file extensions ts to js and tsx to jsx
• Change all ts to js and tsx to jsx in webpack/base.js

For Preact builds

• Disable TS using instructions above
• npm install preact
• Enable { "pragma":"h" } in webpack/base.js
• Enable "jsxImportSource": "preact" in tsconfig.json
• Change react imports to preact

import { render } from 'react-dom'
import React from 'react'

import { h, render } from 'preact'

Default Builds use manifest v3 in chrome, v2 in firefox and safari. To build with manifest v2:

• Manifest versions are per browser basis
• For example, to change firefox build to v3
• Change base/v2 require to base/v3 in src/manifest/firefox.js
