An extension for developers who want quick and easy access to the source code of installed extensions.

Would you like to see how popular extensions have implemented a feature? Tired of looking for the extension ID to construct the path that will lead you to the source?

This is the extension for you!

Features:
Replaces the functionality of the New Tab
Lists all installed extensions with their icons next to it
Allows to copy to the clipboard the extension path

Known issues:
Seems to generate the correct path for Mac, but Chrome in mac does not show the folder contents

hey retards, don't rate something 1 star because it "doesn't work" for you

Doesn't work on Sierra Mac OS

Does what it says. Works on Linux Mint with Chrome V53. Simple and very useful.

no menu option, does nothing..

Joe Schroecker 2016-02-23

Works!

Windows only and overrides the new tab functionality without any notice.

Carles Alcolea 2015-02-12

Seems that it ONLY works on windows and also the fact that its functionality is through the use of the "newtab" page... that's bad design. Fix those two things and we'll talk about a useful and unintrusive extension.

Handy extension and it's opensource :). Would be nice though if it didn't override the new tab functionality.

Bill Witt 2014-02-28

It works great, but how do I uninstall this extension? It's not showing up in the Google Extensions list!

Liad Rubin 2013-02-12

Very useful!
