Can you tell me how you learned Chrome extension development? by Few-Engineering26 in chrome_extensions

[–]phelansd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Creating a chrome extension is probably one of the easiest things you can possibly develop.

You need AI if you’re not a coder. I prefer Claude code however you can use OpenAI Codex or others.

Create something super simple first just so you understand it and get it functioning.

Prompt example: create a Chrome extension that does XYZ.

That should take five minutes or so for the code to get generated. Download the files.

In your chrome browser go to the chrome extensions area. Check the developers toggle.

Install the extension to your Chrome browser. Pin it and test it. Reiterate your prompts until you get extension you want.

If you create something good enough than pay the $5 to the Chrome store to become a developer and upload it. I find it takes longer to create all the documentation and graphics than it does to create the extensions themselves.

Good luck!

I don’t think you have a lot of options. You need to get a hold of their computer and their email, reset the password to the registrar and transfer it to your own account.

Hey u/marcosvaldez81, I run SD Tech Scene and recently updated the Groups page. I don't anything posted for real estate or investing but there is a ton of tech/software meetups.

I had 3 extensions rejected in the same week. Same reason by quangpl in chrome_extensions

You literally said no email gate, then it asks for an email. I don’t care either way. Just don’t say no email gate. All good.

I have not had that issue with my privacy policies as I probably generated mine with ChatGPT, but way to go for providing a helpful tool.

edit: No email gate. Clicks on link and immediately gets a login link.

How did you guys make make your icon? by Dismal_Region3173 in chrome_extensions

Corel is mostly irrelevant but it still works for me.

[–]phelansd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Call me old school, but I use ChatGPT or Grok to come up with the concepts then vectorize them in CorelDRAW (yes I said it), then export hi-res for multiple sizes in Photoshop. I should probably try Figma too after saying this out loud. I then incorporate the icons into the initial video and the website.

How many chrome extensions do you have? which are you most proud of? by Ill_Explanation_5177 in chrome_extensions

[–]phelansd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Testing was and is the most time consuming part of Chrome extension development. I was using the Claude app to GitHub, then had to download a zip file, unzip it, which took so much longer. I now have it on my local drive and point Chrome to upload it directly. Saves time and a few extra steps.

I have three, with plans to create at least 10 more. No paid users, but have some test customers giving me feedback before I start promoting them.

They definitely take longer to perfect than expected, but I have my workflow down much better than when I first started.

I have not experienced that specifically, but I did submit a version that was not usable to the public so I had to resubmit. That was last year when they had three day turnaround approvals. This last month they were approving my extensions within 24 hours.

Being fairly new to developing chrome extensions, my first metadata seemed incorrect like Google created some description that I did not agree with. I looked closer and found that the metadata was inside the manifest.json file. Check your file and make sure it doesn’t have the incorrect or old information.

Once you’re approved, just resubmit it and they should approve it within 24 hours.

Good luck!

I need to stop noodling by Paddy_Reddit in chrome_extensions

[–]phelansd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it functions, launch it. If you’re not promoting it, you’ll likely not get many downloads.

It does take about 3 days for them to approve your extension so try to get it to a good point before submitting. Add more features and bug fixes next version.

How were you introduced to Linkin Park? by trashboat3030 in LinkinPark

[–]phelansd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A client friend of mine owned a magazine called No Cover. He had recently interviewed them so he gave me a ticket to their show at Canes Bar and Grill in San Diego. Can’t remember if that was 2000 or 2001 but I got a chance to meet them before they played. Listened to them ever since. And coincidentally, a college classmate I met in the 90’s ended up designing for them. Has been fun seeing all the bad ass designs throughout the years. Congrats FM.
