A Chrome Extension with ReasonReact

This is a starter example to build a Chrome extension using ReasonReact. It is 100% based on the original started project "Getting Started: Building a Chrome Extension".

The project consists on placing a clickable icon right next to Chrome's Omnibox for easy access. Clicking that icon opens a popup window that allows the user to choose the background color of the current page. If the user had selected a background color for the page earlier, the extension will remember the user's choice and use it as the default, once the popup is clicked:

Running

Run this project:

npm install
npm start
# in another tab
npm run webpack

After you see the webpack compilation succeed (the npm run webpack step), open up the nested html files in src/* (no server needed!). Then modify whichever file in src and refresh the page to see the changes.

For more elaborate ReasonReact examples, please see https://github.com/reasonml-community/reason-react-example

TODO

Contributions welcomed :)

• Make production webpack config
• The project is based in this temporary branch of bucklescript-chrome (the bindings for Chrome API). package.json should be changed once / if the changes are merged upstream
