Simple Extension Setup

• Version 0.9 (beta)
• Author: Oscar Sanderson

Purpose

• Are you tired of manually writing manifest.json files and want a quick way to generate on your desktop from the comfort of the command line?
• If so, this project can enable you to quickly setup an extension project through a command line prompt to simplify the Firefox extension setup process
• This may be especially useful for ocassional extension developers who want to quickly setup their configuration without being concerned with writing it themselves
• A future development goal is to implement more input validation to ensure all input conforms the Firefox Add-on Store rules - This will come with a future release

Disclaimer

• Please do not use this method for non-Firefox extensions (Chromium for example). Doing so may not produce an incorrect template.
• I am not liable for any mistakes made when using this tool to generate the extension's manifest.json so input details carefully

Future Features Roadmap

• Better input validation to ensure all input conforms the Firefox Add-on Store rules
• More manifest configuration options will be avaliable in the future through an advanced mode to ensure the experience remains as quick as possible for most extension developers
• Chromium support is a future development goal
