How do i load a Chrome extension when manifest.json is in a subfolder (app) instead of main folder

26 views Asked by At

I cloned an extension from github trying to modify a shortcut to work for me. The extension

But when I load the extension from the "app folder" (the one contain manifest.json) chrome gives back several errors

  • Unrecognized manifest key 'browser_specific_settings'.
  • Manifest version 2 is deprecated, and support will be removed in 2024.
  • Uncaught SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module

And I believe this is because I didnt figure out the way to tell Google Chrome how to load the extension from the main folder.

Correct me if i'm wrong because I don't have any knowledge about building a Chrome extension, just trying to get the shortcuts to work.
