Hire a Browser Extension Developer
I build custom browser extensions for Chrome and Edge, plus VS Code extensions that enhance developer workflows. From concept to Chrome Web Store publishing, I handle the complete lifecycle.
Custom Browser & VS Code Extension Development
Browser extensions are powerful tools that enhance how people interact with the web. Whether you need an internal productivity tool for your team, a SaaS companion extension, or a standalone product for the Chrome Web Store, I bring hands-on experience shipping real extensions used by thousands of users.
I have published extensions on both the Chrome Web Store and VS Code Marketplace, including SEO Spider Tools (available on Chrome and Edge) and NPM Manager for VS Code (1,400+ installs, 5-star rating). This means I understand not just the code, but the entire lifecycle — from architecture to store submission to ongoing maintenance.
What I Build
- Chrome and Edge extensions using Manifest V3
- VS Code extensions with custom commands, webview panels, and language support
- Content scripts for page modification and data extraction
- Popup and sidebar user interfaces
- Background service workers for persistent processing
- Cross-browser extensions from a single codebase
- Extension backends with user authentication and cloud sync

Why Choose Me for Your Extension Project
Unlike general web developers who occasionally touch extensions, I have shipped real extensions to production stores. I understand the unique challenges — permission models, content security policies, cross-origin restrictions, store review processes, and the nuances of background vs content script communication. You get an experienced extension developer who has been through the full cycle multiple times.
