### Building

Or, if you would rather do it the hard way, you can build the extension from the source code:

  1. Make sure you have Node and NPM installed

  1. Download/clone this repo

  1. Install all the dependencies:

      ```bash

      # From the project folder

      npm install

      ```

  1. Run the build command:

      ```bash

      npm run build [chrome/firefox]

      ```

The build command assembles all the files in the `dist` folder. After it’s built, you can load it into Chrome or Firefox.

#### Load into Chrome

  1. Go to [chrome://extensions/](chrome://extensions/)

  1. Check “Developer Mode”

  1. Click “Load unpacked extension…”

  1. Load up the “dist” folder

#### Load into Firefox

  1. Go to [about:addons](about:addons)

  1. Select “Extensions”

  1. Click the settings cog, and select “Install Add-on From File…”

  1. Load up the “dist” folder

## Using the extension

  1. Go to a page you want to save for later

  1. Click the reading list icon on the top right of your browser ![Chrome Reading List icon](src/icons/icon32.png)

  1. Click the `+` button

      - You can also right-click anywhere on the page and select “Add page to Reading List”

  1. When you want to read a page you saved, open up the extension and click the reading item you want to read

      - `Control + click` or `command ⌘/windows key ⊞ + click` to open the page in a new tab

  1. Done with a page? Click the `×` next to said page in your reading list, and it will magically vanish.
