summary
A small Chrome extension surfaces random Urban Dictionary idioms in a new tab built with Create React App and plain React components, wiring permissions in manifest.json to override the new-tab page and testing locally via Load unpacked in chrome://extensions. The prototype takes about eight hours to implement; publishing exposes friction — icons, screenshots, store listing copy — via the Chrome Web Store, revealing product and design work beyond coding.
