Web Feed Scanner

A browser extension (WebExtensions Manifest V3) that detects declared web feeds for the currently loaded page. It parses <link> tags and exposes found feeds on a separate tab, which opens when you click on a button on the toolbar or an item in the context menu.

The project uses the extension.js framework.

• Git
• Node.js with npm

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/tseykovets/web-feed-scanner.git

   npm run dev -- --browser=firefox

The project supports building for different browsers via dedicated npm scripts:

• For Chromium-based browsers (Chrome, Edge, Yandex Browser, etc.):

   npm run build:chromium-based

  The built extension will be located in: dist/chromium-based/
• For Gecko-based browsers (Firefox, LibreWolf, Waterfox, etc.):

   npm run build:gecko-based

  The built extension will be located in: dist/gecko-based/
