# frameover

### For when you need a frame over!

## Install

```

npm i frameover

```

```

yarn add frameover

```

```

pnpm install frameover

```

or whatever NPM equivalent you use

## Docs, short & simple

```js

const {create} = require("frameover");

window.onload = async () => {

    // takes in an optional background color in any CSS format [if you end up using it, I'd recommend a shade of gray]

    const frame = await create("rgba(0,0,0,0.5)");

    // do stuff in your frame

    frame.document.innerHTML = "";

    frame.window.console.log("in a frame!!");

    // and when you're done, destroy it so the user can get back to the page

    frame.destroy();

    // or pause it and resume later

    frame.pause();

    setTimeout(frame.resume, 5000);

};

```

## Use cases

- Web extension where you need to show something on top of a website without affecting the site's existing JS [cross-origin isolation for the win!]

- There's definitely more but I can't think of them right now

## Code

Reused from one of my old projects I never ended up releasing & cleaned up a bit in case anyone else wanted to use it.
