Ridiculously Simple Analytics for Chrome Extension

A ridiculously simple implementation of Google Analytics in a Chrome extension for when you just want to start making stuff.

Sends a Google Analytics event when you click on the Google Search logo.

Setup

  • Set up your Google Analytics account.
  • Create a custom Analytics event.
  • In background.js replace UA-XXXXXXXX-XX with your Analytics id.
  • Go to chrome://extensions, make sure developer mode is turned on and load this source as an Unpacked Extension.

Why did I do this?

This is part of a series of ridiculously simple, executable code examples.

Sometimes we need to cut through the documentation jungle and start making stuff.
