Revision 1018414 of Example WebExtensions

<div>{{AddonSidebar}}</div>

<p>To help illustrate how to develop WebExtensions, we maintain a repository of simple example WebExtensions at <a href="https://github.com/mdn/webextensions-examples">https://github.com/mdn/webextensions-examples</a>. This article describes the extensions in that repository.</p>

<p>These examples work in Firefox Nightly: some work in earlier versions of Firefox, but check the <a href="/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json/applications">strict_min_version</a> key in the add-on's manifest.json to make sure.</p>

<p>A recommended way to install these add-ons is to use <a href="/en-US/docs/">about:debugging</a>, which was added in Firefox 45, these will load the add-on straight from the directory so no zip or sign step is needed.</p>

<p>If you want to contribute to the repository, send us a pull request!</p>
