web-ext
auto reload the extension when extension/
files changed.
While Vite handles HMR automatically in the most of the case, Extensions Reloader is still recommanded for cleaner hard reloading.

To build the extension, run
pnpm build
And then pack files under extension
, you can upload extension.crx
or extension.xpi
to appropriate extension store.
