Hello all.

I've built a web scraper that goes through the Chrome Extension store and returns information regarding Chrome Extensions.

Analyzed, this data can be revelatory for people who are starting out and want to provide real value through "tiny" projects.

I've displayed this information on my (slightly-shitty-for-now) website, free for anyone to view/ download.

No email or anything required (link)

I've analyzed the data for you to show patterns that indicate that an extension can be value skewed.

(example: an extension is popular but has support only for a few languages. This leaves a large market of potential customers completely untapped!)

Developing Chrome Extensions is a bit of a low-key hustle but is definitely monetizable, just check out @Tau Ceti 's posts for example.

@MJ DeMarco describes how new entrepreneurs need to start small instead of trying to build the next Google.

This data will help you determine which extensions is worth your time to make better!

Leave any love or hate below!
