a browser (Chrome and Firefox) for hoofing it

hoof-it

1. a browser extension for hoofing it. Replaces Merge with Hoof in Github.com pages.
2. replaces images with the hoof-it image.

Based on top of the @samrum/vite-plugin-web-extension starter template.

This template should help get you started developing a vanilla web extension in Vite.

Usage Notes

The extension manifest is defined in src/manifest.js and used by @samrum/vite-plugin-web-extension in the vite config.

Background, content scripts, options, and popup entry points exist in the src/entries directory.

Content scripts are rendered by src/entries/contentScript/renderContent.js which renders content within a ShadowRoot and handles style injection for HMR and build modes.

Otherwise, the project functions just like a regular Vite project.

To switch between Manifest V2 and Manifest V3 builds, use the MANIFEST_VERSION environment variable defined in .env

HMR during development in Manifest V3 requires Chromium version >= 110.0.5480.0.

Refer to @samrum/vite-plugin-web-extension for more usage notes.
