Instead, you will have to return to this page, download the latest release and reload it in Thunderbird in order to update it.\n\n# Building\n\nYou can also build the extension yourself.\nThe building requires `nodejs` and `npm` to be installed. The extension relies on the generation of a bundle (which will appear in the `web-ext-artifacts` folder). In order to generate it, please ensure you have the `webpack`, `webpack-cli` and `web-ext` packages installed (these can be installed using `npm install webpack webpack-cli web-ext`). Then execute the following lines\n```bash\n# Clone the repository\ngit clone https://github.com/cphyc/thunderbird_date.git\n# Move into the newly-created folder\ncd thunderbird_date\n# Install the requirements\nnpm install\n# Generate the .zip file for the extension\nnpm run build\n# or alternatively\nnpm run bundle  # will bundle all .js files into one\nnpm run webext  # will create the .zip file\n```\n\nOnce the extension has been generated, load in from `thunderbird_date/web-ext-artifacts/`.\nNote that if you install this way, you need to manually update the repository, rebuild the extension and reload it in Thunderbird in order to update it.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcphyc%2Fthunderbird_date","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fcphyc%2Fthunderbird_date","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcphyc%2Fthunderbird_date/lists"}
