Explanation

This is a tiny little browser extension that does a couple things:

• tells you if a site is hosted on Netlify
• if it is:
  • if it is a .netlify.com host, check if it is open source:
    • if it is:
      • show you a link to deploy log AND github page
    • else:
      • show you a link to deploy log, only useful if you own it
  • else:
    • nothing else we can do
• else:
  • not active

PRs/feature suggestions welcome

How it works

Honestly its probably more complicated than needs to be but i based it off of other extensions that do the same thing.

• inject content-script into every page
• script pings background.js that there is a new page
• background.js activates the "browser action" (the little logo on the browser bar) if its a Netlify site by sniffing the Server field in the response header.
• if it is a Netlify site and you click the "browser action":
  • if it is on .netlify.com host, popup.js checks if it is open source and manipulates popup.html accordingly.
