Seoul. I build small tools — browser extensions, trip planning.
Currently: a cookie cleaner for Chrome MV3.

So I made mine with no build step at all. The files in the repo are the files that run. Reason is simple. My extension reads cookies, and I could not find other way to let someone confirm that the thing reading their cookies is the thing I published. Unzip the crx, diff with repo, 10 seconds.
Cost is real. No modules, no types, and I had to write some things in a stupid way. It was acceptable because the code is small. For a big project this is not possible, so the work in this article is important.
