News Extractor Extension

How to Package and Install in Chrome and Edge

1. Prepare the Extension Files

Make sure your extension folder (news-extractor-extension/) contains these files:

  • manifest.json
  • background.js
  • content.js
  • news-extractor.html
  • news-extractor.js
  • news-extractor.css

You may also include icons if desired (icon16.png, icon48.png, icon128.png).

2. Zip the Extension Folder

From the root of your workspace, run:

cd news-extractor-extension
zip -r ../news-extractor-extension.zip .

This creates news-extractor-extension.zip in your workspace root.

3. Install in Chrome or Edge

Chrome

  1. Go to chrome://extensions/
  2. Enable Developer mode (top right)
  3. Click Load unpacked and select the news-extractor-extension folder
    • Or click Pack extension and select the folder, then load the generated .crx file
  4. Or drag and drop the news-extractor-extension.zip into the page (unzip first if needed)

Edge

  1. Go to edge://extensions/
  2. Enable Developer mode
  3. Click Load unpacked and select the news-extractor-extension folder

4. Manifest/JSON Setup

No extra setup is needed. The manifest.json is already configured for Chrome and Edge (Manifest V3).

If you add icons, update the icons section in manifest.json accordingly.


Note: If you update the extension, remove the old version from the browser and repeat the steps above.
