• Coming Full Circle: It starts and ends with Git and GitHub
  5 projects | dev.to | 6 Dec 2024

  Browser Extensions: As mentioned in my previous blogs when I worked on the ImprovedTube extension - I have recently been invested in learning more about browser extensions. The work I did for Le Git Graph, has taught me about the complexities of integrating with existing web applications (you have to know a lot about GitHub's interface in order to manipulate it!). Working on this extension made realize GitHub's dynamic nature requires me to carefully handle different page states and navigation patterns - and even then, there might be things that change and I'll have to update the code accordingly.

  This feature is really neat! But as I was testing this feature personally, I noticed some inconsistencies with how the extension behaved. The most apparent inconsistency was that I expected to see the Cinema Mode button disappear if I disabled the Cinema Mode switch, and similarly, I expected the Cinema Mode button to appear if I toggle the Cinema Mode switch on. Long story short - the toggle switch wasn't working as expected. Whenever I tried to disable the Cinema Mode switch, I noticed that the YouTube Player button still persisted. I was confident that this was not the expected behaviour either since ImprovedTube's other toggle switches would cause their respective buttons to appear or disappear accordingly. As such, I logged this issue: https://github.com/code-charity/youtube/issues/2700 (you can see exactly what I mean because I posted a video showcasing the issue).

  Improved Tube extension was the culprit. No idea why it only happened for one of my accounts though.
