The road ahead is filled with many turns.
- Popup changes go in
popup.tsx
- Options page changes go in
options.tsx
- Content script changes go in
content.ts
- Background service worker changes go in
background.ts
You can also organize these files in their own directories:
ext-dir
├───assets
| └───icon512.png
├───popup
| ├───index.tsx
| └───button.tsx
├───options
| ├───index.tsx
| ├───utils.ts
| └───input.tsx
├───contents
| ├───site-one.ts
| ├───site-two.ts
| └───site-three.ts
...
Finally, you can also avoid putting source code in your root directory by putting them in a src
sub-directory, following this guide. Note that assets
and other config files will still need to be in the root directory.
