README
# WASM Extension Template
This template allows you to generate a "Hello World" web extension running a **Rust program compiled to WASM**.
The program will be executed as a **content script**, without the need of being injected into the page.
Supports both manifest v2 and v3.
## Install tools
```sh
cargo install cargo-generate
cargo install wasm-pack
```
## Generate an extension
You can use `cargo-generate` to generate a new crate (modify the name at the end of the command):
```sh
cargo generate --git https://github.com/Mubelotix/wasm-extension-template --name amazing-extension
```
Your crate is now generated and ready to be compiled.
## Compile your extension
You cannot use `cargo build` to compile your crate. Use the `build.sh` script instead:
```sh
sh build.sh
```
Once compiled, the target files are ready to be used in the `pkg` folder.
## Test your program
Web browsers allow developpers to test web extensions before publishment.
See your browser's specific instructions to do that.
After build, the `manifest.json` file is located in the `pkg` folder.
By default, your extension will run on example.com and have no other permissions.
You should want to modify the manifest (see [the doc](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json)).
