Building My First Extension with WXT

Recently got into learning how to build a browser extension and came across WXT, a modern framework that a few creators recommended. I’ve been playing around with it for the past few days and it’s looking pretty solid so far.

What really stood out to me is how smooth the developer experience is. It’s built on top of Vite, supports TypeScript out of the box, and even hot-reloads your background and content scripts while you’re developing. The documentation is clear and well-structured, which made it easy to get something running quickly.

I’ll be shipping something interesting with it in the coming week. If you’re curious, check it out here (🙌highly recommended): https://wxt.dev/
