Development

Code Structure

  • App.jsx: The main component handling the UI and core functionality which also acts as the extension's popup interface.
  • App.css: The CSS file for styling the popup interface.
  • manifest.json: The manifest file defining the extension's metadata and permissions.
  • assets/: Directory containing image assets like trash.svg.

Troubleshooting

Profile Data Not Persisting

Ensure that Chrome's sync storage is functioning correctly and that the extension has the necessary permissions.

Duplicate Profiles

The extension now includes logic to check for duplicates before adding a new profile. If you encounter issues, make sure you are on a LinkedIn profile page when adding.
