# Contributing to Chrome Extension CLI
Loving Chrome Extension CLI and want to get involved? Thanks.<br>
We're actively looking for folks interested in helping out. Suggestions and pull requests are highly encouraged!
## Workflow
1. Clone the project:
```sh
git clone https://github.com/dutiyesh/chrome-extension-cli.git
cd chrome-extension-cli
npm install
```
2. When working on the CLI, create a symlink in the global folder by executing this command:
```sh
npm link chrome-extension-cli
```
3. Now you can execute the CLI with command:
```sh
chrome-extension-cli my-extension
```
## Loading an extension into the browser
Once an extension is built with `npm run build` command, load it in the browser with below instructions:
1. Open **chrome://extensions**
2. Check the **Developer mode** checkbox
3. Click on the **Load unpacked extension** button
4. Select the folder **my-extension/build**
