My Second Chrome Extension is Live!

A Bit of Background 📚

At the beginning of this year, I built my first Chrome Extension. The company I work for has a product which is implemented on customer's websites, which is tricky to check for those teams launching the product. I built an internal tool to validate whether it was implemented, by checking the network calls, and report back a couple of settings.

With a total of 17 users, it pretty much reached peak usage fairly quickly. But it does have 5 stars on the web store.

I've been building on my JavaScript skills since then, including completing the Free Code Camp JavaScript course. I've been looking for something new to create and work on as a side project.

Jira Jiggler 🏋️‍♀️

After over 18 months of working from home, and having to adapt to new ways of working, I came up with this fun idea to randomly select a participant from a group within Jira, to make the Daily Scrum a little more interesting.

The Jira Jiggler loads on Atlassian pages, and can be configured to load any previously set up group. It makes use of the API's available from Atlassian.

I've been learning a lot from this community (thank you), and hope to put some of that into practice, as well as building on this idea a little more.
