Summary:
At Pinch we recently launched a Chrome Extension for our customers to give them contextual payment information while they are in other connected systems. Let's take a look at how to go about building a chrome extension with react, making use of the Chrome Runtime and Side Panel APIs, understanding extension permissions (What you can get access to without asking and what you can ask for) and tying it all together into a seamless user experience.

Hi @dkarzon - Would you be available to present this at monday's BrisJS? 8th July.

@iamkevinv That is a bit too soon, I'm not ready for it just yet ๐Ÿ˜•

All good - let's aim for Aug then!
No worries, sorry to attempt to jump onto it - just in some desperate need to add more folks to the lineup ๐Ÿ™

That I can work with ๐Ÿ‘
I am giving the same talk at ReactBris in August as well, hopefully that isn't a problem?

I added more buffer time since we have it... 30mins for each speaker now instead of the 20. See you monday.
