- # Additional Notes
- - **manifest.json**: This file is crucial as it defines the extension's metadata, permissions, and entry points.
- - **background.js**: This script runs independently of any web page and can perform tasks such as listening for browser events, making network requests, and storing data.
- - **content.js**: This script injects code into web pages to manipulate the DOM, modify styles, or communicate with the background script.
- - **popup.html/popup.js**: These files create the popup that appears when the user clicks the extension icon.
- icons: These icons are used to represent the extension in the browser's UI.
- More Detailed Explanation
- - **manifest.json**: Specifies the extension's name, version, permissions, and other details. It also defines the entry points for the background script, content scripts, and the popup.
- - **background.js**: Handles tasks that need to run continuously, such as syncing data, listening for browser events, or controlling the extension's behavior.
- - **content.js**: Interacts directly with the web page's DOM, allowing you to modify the content, style, or behavior of the page.
- - **popup.html/popup.js**: Creates a user interface that allows users to interact with the extension.
- Other files: These files can contain additional scripts, styles, or assets that are used by the extension.
