chromium-codereview

A chrome extension that changes the frontend to Rietveld for Chromium making it awesome.

Getting started

  1. Install bower
  2. Run bower install in the root of the project.
  3. Open about:flags and enable "Experimental web platform features".
  4. Open chrome:://extensions and load the unpacked extension.

Note: Chrome 36+ is required.

The application works by redirecting navigations to codereview.chromium.org to /static/app/ which the server will respond to with a 404. It then replaces the 404 page with the app. This is done since most rietveld pages take a long time to load, but the 404 page is fast.
