Course Overview
4 projects of increasing complexity. The only Google and Firefox extension / plugin development course you'll need!
Hi guys, hope you’re doing well! I’m Dhruv and in this chrome extension development and firefox plugin development course, I’ll cover everything you’ll need to be ready to create or work upon the latest versions of chrome extensions and firefox plugins and the old. Most of the material you’ll find has been outdated due to google’s radical change from Chrome Manifest V2 to V3, including Chrome API, structure and functionality changes, but don't worry as I said I'll teach you everything you’ll need to be ready to create or work upon the latest versions of chrome extensions and the old. I have taught about this topic in various seminars and workshops. I’ll cover the topics in 4 levels of expertise and I promise by the end of it, you’ll have everything you need to start working on your own project on firefox plugins or chrome extensions.
One of the primary benefits of extension development is the low barrier to entry. Unlike other types of software development, which often require significant resources and expertise, extension development is relatively simple and can be done by anyone with a basic understanding of web technologies. This means that it is possible to get started as an extension developer with minimal upfront investment. If you know the basics of JavaScript and HTML, you’re good to go here.
Even though it is simple, chrome extension development is highly profitable and I personally have 3 extensions on the web store which make significant revenue. And a simple search on job portals will tell you how in-demand these job profiles are.

Good course for someone getting his or her feet wet in extensions.

Course was confusing. There were many facts told first and then said that should not work this way. Content was not prepared well enough.

If you're reading this because you're unsure of whether or not to buy this course, trust me it is! Perfect

Intro to the course is fine at best but the quality of presentation is awful. The projects are poorly organised where the instructor codes and makes occasional clumsy comments to explain what is happening. No context around js syntax, functions that are being called etc. I'm pretty sure the 5 star reviews are fake. Feels like I've been had.
