Maintained by the MDN team at Mozilla.
WebExtensions are a way to write browser extensions: that is, programs installed inside a web browser that modify the behaviour of the browser or of web pages loaded by the browser. They are built on a set of cross-browser APIs, so WebExtensions written for Google Chrome or Opera will in most cases run in Firefox or Edge too.
The "webextensions-examples" repository is a collection of simple but complete and installable WebExtensions. You can use the examples to see how to use the WebExtensions APIs, and as a starting point for your own WebExtensions.
The examples are made available under the Mozilla Public License 2.0.
How to use "webextensions-examples"
To use the repository, first clone it.
Each example is in its own top-level directory. Install an example in your favourite web browser (see installation instructions for Firefox), and see how it works. Each example has its own short README explaining what it does.
To find your way around a WebExtension's internal structure, have a look at the Anatomy of a WebExtension page on MDN.
To use these examples in Firefox, you need at least Firefox 45. Some examples
rely on APIs that were added in more recent versions of Firefox.
To check the minimum version of Firefox needed for a given example,
see the strict_min_version part of the applications key
in the example's manifest.json file.
