![json-bookmarks](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/31454564/147612138-4c9d6bb4-49d3-41ae-bed0-274a23d21c66.png)

This add-on uses a simple json file format for exporting and importing bookmarks

in Firefox and Chrome. This makes it easy to sync bookmarks offline between

browsers, share subset of your bookmarks with others or backup in a git repository.

## Install

* Firefox: .

* Chrome: 

## Format

Chrome and Firefox uses different names for the built-in bookmarks root folders.

The bookmarks file format handles this by:

* Substituting __"Bookmarks Toolbar"__ in Mozilla Firefox and __"Bookmarks bar"__ in Chrome

* Substituting __"Bookmarks Menu"__ in Mozilla Firefox and __"Other bookmarks"__ in Chrome

  with `${BOOKMARKS_MENU}`.

## Build and develop

1. Install third party libraries with `tools/install_third_party`.

2. Load the extension locally from Mozilla Firefox:

   `about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox` and from

   Chrome: `chrome://extensions/`.

3. Package with `tools/package`.

4. Distribute for Mozilla  and for Chrome:

   .
