NOTE: I have written an article about the motivation of this extension: https://david.wolf.gdn/how-to-always-and-automatically-redirect-to-the-latest-bootstrap-documentation-chromium-extension/[«How to always and automatically redirect to the latest Bootstrap documentation»].

Chromium browser extension to redirect all your request to Bootstrap documentation of versions lower than {bootstrap-version} to the docs of Bootstrap {bootstrap-version}.

For example if you just ended on the documentation pages of Bootstrap v4.0, you will always be redirected to the documentation of Bootstrap {bootstrap-version}.

== Permission justifications

=== webRequest justification

`webRequest` is needed to check if the requested URL is requestig an outdated Bootstrap documentation page, to be able to redirect those requests.

=== webRequestBlocking justification

`webRequestBlocking` is needed to make the request synchronous to be able to redirect it.

=== Host permission justification

`*://getbootstrap.com/docs/*`:: Is needed, as this is the documentation host of Bootstrap. Traffic to old documentations will be redirect to new ones.
