- Version Control (Git)
- Problem-Solving and Debugging
- User Interface Design
- Project Planning and Execution
## Experience Gained
Through developing the Chrome extension for lead tracking and local storage handling, I gained valuable skills and experiences that have enhanced my capabilities as a developer:
1. **JavaScript Proficiency:** The project deepened my understanding of JavaScript, and I became more adept at using the language to manipulate the Document Object Model (DOM) and create interactive web applications.
2. **Chrome Extension Development:** I gained hands-on experience in building a functional Chrome extension from scratch. I learned how to set up the extension, define the extension's user interface, and handle user interactions effectively.
3. **Local Storage Handling:** The project exposed me to the concept of local storage in web development. I learned how to store data locally within the user's browser, allowing for data persistence and seamless user experiences.
4. **API Integration (Chrome Tabs API):** I acquired knowledge of the Chrome Tabs API and learned how to utilize it to interact with the browser's active tabs. This skill allowed me to save the current tab's URL as a lead, improving the extension's functionality.
5. **Version Control (Git):** Throughout the project, I utilized Git for version control, enabling me to manage code changes effectively, collaborate with others, and track the development progress.
6. **Problem-Solving and Debugging:** I encountered various challenges during the development process, and this project provided ample opportunities to sharpen my problem-solving and debugging skills.
7. **User Interface Design:** While building the extension's user interface, I honed my skills in creating clean and user-friendly designs that enhance the overall user experience.
8. **Project Planning and Execution:** The project required careful planning and execution to ensure that the extension met the intended functionality. This experience enhanced my project management skills and ability to meet deadlines.
