Chrome Extension Developer Project — Background Tab Monitor + Google Sheets Logger

Posted 3 weeks ago

Worldwide

Summary

I'm looking for an experienced Chrome extension developer to build a lightweight background monitoring extension. The extension watches an open browser tab, detects a specific event on screen, and automatically logs it to Google Sheets while firing a browser notification. The popup includes a simple selector where I can label which environment I'm working in, so every log entry is tagged correctly. Settings are stored persistently inside the extension. No backend needed. Tech: Manifest V3, MutationObserver, Google Sheets API or Apps Script webhook, chrome.storage. Please answer the following questions in your proposal: 1. Have you built a Chrome extension using Manifest V3? If yes, share an example. 2. Would you use the Google Sheets API directly or an Apps Script webhook for this, and why? 3. What is your estimated timeline and fixed price?
