I just wrapped up a text-parser extension using the WXT framework, which combines Vue and TypeScript. Compared to the previous vanilla boilerplate I used, WXT has made the development process so much smoother for me.
In my extension, I utilize `readability.js` to extract article content, which I then render in a focused view. The basic steps in my approach are:
1. Parse the DOM
2. Extract text and images
3. Render everything in a Shadow DOM overlay
However, I'm facing some challenges with certain hydration frameworks where the DOM isn't fully ready when my content script runs. I'm looking for advice on implementing robust DOM observation techniques for extensions. If you have experience with this, I would really appreciate a code review or some guidance.
Also, if you're curious about WXT, I'm here to answer any questions you might have!
