Note, on any code change, you will have to press the Reload Extension button in the top left corner of Google Calendar in order to see the newest changes.

React DevTools

Instead, a standalone React DevTools (an Electron app) needs to be used. Installation Instructions,

Note, this will only work for when WebPack is run in development mode as we disabled react DevTools integration in production to reduce bundle size.

Testing

Unit tests are powered by Jest. Static Typechecking is powered by TypeScript.

You can run both like this:

npm test

or:

npm t

Alternatively, you can start Jest in watch mode:

npm run unitTests:watch
