# Starter Chrome Extension # 🔄 Simple Sync
A minimal Chrome extension starter (Manifest V3) with a popup, options page, content script and background service worker. A lightweight Chrome extension that syncs your browser data—starting with bookmarks—across multiple devices using a unique sync token.
## How to run locally ---
1. Save the project files to a folder (e.g. `chrome-extension-starter`). ## 🚀 Features
2. Open Chrome and go to `chrome://extensions`.
3. Toggle **Developer mode** on (top-right). -**Bookmark Syncing**: Automatically sync bookmarks between your Chrome browsers.
4. Click **Load unpacked** and pick the extension folder. - 🔐 **Token-Based Syncing**: Your data is linked to a unique **sync token**—share it with other devices to sync across them.
5. The extension should appear in the toolbar (pin it for convenience). - 🌐 **Cross-Device Support**: Use the same token on multiple devices to keep them in sync.
- 🔄 **Real-Time Updates** *(Planned)*: Upcoming support for near-instant sync between devices.
