Hi HN, we are excited to release our open beta. You can directly download our extension builder from the Chrome store today!

Creating and deploying Chrome Extensions is not as straightforward as deploying a webapp (even though CRXs are much simpler). We've been working on helping developers with basic JS skills create custom Chrome Extensions!

Come try building your own extension :)

----

We've been working on a set of templates to show off what you can build as well.

Once you sign in, try out these ready to use templates

- [Stack Overflow Helper](https://hq.extension.dev/template/511)

- [LinkedIn Profile Clipper](https://hq.extension.dev/template/507)

- [Remove distracting websites](https://hq.extension.dev/template/526)

Or use these templates to add your own custom button to popular websites

- [add a custom button to Google Search to search only Reddit](https://hq.extension.dev/template/519)

- [add a button to Tweets to create a Tweet Labeler](https://hq.extension.dev/template/445)
