Building for Chrome Web Store

When you're ready to submit to the Chrome Web Store, you need to create a clean package that excludes development files.

Option 1: Shell Script (Recommended)

./build.sh

This will:

• Create a dist/ folder with only the necessary files
• Generate prompt-box-extension.zip ready for upload
• Show you what files are included

Option 2: Node.js Build Script

First install dependencies:

npm install

Then build:

npm run build  # Creates clean dist/ folder
npm run zip    # Creates ZIP file for Chrome Web Store

Option 3: Manual Process

If you prefer to do it manually:

1. Create a new folder called dist/
2. Copy only these files to dist/:
   • Manifest.json
   • background.js
   • popup.html
   • popup.js
   • icon16.png
   • icon48.png
   • icon128.png
3. Create a ZIP file from the contents of dist/

The following development files are automatically excluded (see .chromeignore):

• README.md (this file)
• PRD.md (Product Requirements Document)
• security.mdc (Security guidelines)
• build.sh and build.js (build scripts)
• package.json (npm configuration)
• .git/ (git repository files)
