Hello everyone,
I've recently built an API using Node.js that receives data from a Firefox extension that automatically posts the title & URL of your currently selected Firefox tab and sends it to Twitch chat using Node.js. Today, you'll find part 2, which shows you how I built the Firefox extension. We'll start with building a basic Firefox extension and then create an extension that integrates with our Node.js application.
I thought that I'd share it in case you are interested in a easy to learn tutorial that you can go through at your own pace. With the mini-series, I've taken the approach of building the app over a set of videos that incorporate the skills to be a effective with Node.js, using external and internal libraries, and using JavaScript to create a Firefox extension.
