FAQ

What is a CRX file?

A CRX is Chrome's extension package format. It is a ZIP archive with a small signature header that holds the extension's full source and assets.

How do I view the source code?

Rename the downloaded .crx to .zip and open it with any unzip tool to browse manifest.json, scripts, and assets.

Is the download safe?

The package comes straight from Google's official clients2.google.com endpoint. We only build the link; the file never passes through our server.

Why download a CRX?

For offline backups, auditing source code, studying how an extension works, or installing where the store is not reachable.
