I previously had a content script that fetched the code and ran it through eval
so that I could update the extension instantly for all users, without waiting for everyone's extensions to update.
From the migration guide:
Externalize logic with a remote service—Consider migrating application logic from the extension to a remote web service that your extension can call. (Essentially a form of message passing.) This provides you the ability to keep code private and change the code on demand while avoiding the extra overhead of resubmitting to the Chrome Web Store.
My question is, how can I do this? What exactly does this mean?
