# Briefly procedures

1. Install Chromium-based browser, e.g., Brave or Google Chrome, on your Debian-based distros.

2. Install your extension via [https://chromewebstore.google.com/](https://chromewebstore.google.com/). Then click the *three dots* menu of the extension, and choose *manage extension*. 

3. Launching it from terminal by copy the *extension id* and replace it at `<>` in the below command. Don't forget to change the `brave-browser` to your browser binary, in my case, it is Brave browser.

```bash

brave-browser --app=chrome-extension://<>/index.html

```

4. Create the shortcuts

- Right click on the desktop, add new launcher, then add the command and configure what ever your want.

- Add the launcher you created to panel or dock.

- Copy it in to `/usr/share/applications` directory by using the *sudo* user.
