How to run the unminified version or how does one develop, make changes and run this extension? I know how to use the release version.

To run unminifed version for example for development purposes follow these steps:

  1. install yarn if it does not exis on your computer
  2. git clone https://github.com/ispras/web-scraper-chrome-extension.git && cd web-scraper-chrome-extension
  3. install dependencies yarn install
  4. run development server yarn watch:dev
  5. then load in browser created after this command dist folder as described here after that you could make changes in code and they would be automatically reloaded in chrome. Sometimes you should reopen tab with plugin and changes applied.
