If all you want to do is execute your own js on a certain web page, you can just use greasemonkey or another userscript extension for your browser instead of writing a whole new extension each for each script.
Greasemonkey also appears to provide an interface for peristent local storage as well. [1]

- MetaCosm 13y agoYeah, GreaseMonkey/TamperMonkey/GreaseKit ... seems like a much easier way of doing what he is going for.
- krapp 13y agoThat's what i was thinking too... I've started making userscripts for a few sites I frequent. It's really useful for forums. Greasemonkey is awesome. (shameless plug - http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/178736 http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/178736)
- mmahemoff 13y agoA similar tool is Control Freak, optimised for quick CSS or JS tweaks and imo less mental overhead than GM/TM. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/control-freak/jgnchehlaggacipokckdlbdemfeohdhc?hl=en https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/control-freak/jgnc...

- johnpmayer 13y agoThe lay user is probably more likely to install a chrome extension than code. Then again, I don't know if greasemonkey has gotten more lay-friendly recently.
- anaphor 13y agoAll they'd have to do is click a link that says "install this script" and then gm prompts you to install it.
