Simple Translate Extension

Just a simple extension that translates the current page using with Google Translate, without requiring any permissions.

Install

Download the latest release from the Github releases tab.

Unzip the release.

Go to chrome://extensions/ and click "Load unpacked extension", navigate to the extracted folder.

Development

This is a Plasmo extension project bootstrapped with plasmo init.

First, run the development server:

yarn dev
# or
pnpm dev
# or
npm run dev

Open your browser and load the appropriate development build. For example, if you are developing for the chrome browser, using manifest v3, use: build/chrome-mv3-dev.

You can start editing the popup by modifying popup.tsx. It should auto-update as you make changes. To add an options page, simply add a options.tsx file to the root of the project, with a react component default exported. Likewise to add a content page, add a content.ts file to the root of the project, importing some module and do some logic, then reload the extension on your browser.

Making production build

Run the following:

yarn build
# or
pnpm build
# or
npm run build

This should create a production bundle for your extension, ready to be zipped and published to the stores.
