Comment on Lessons learnt from monetising my Chrome Extensionparent

Comments

I had one user message me complaining his all of clients websites would lag when he used the extension (It checks for changes to files by crudely polling them every 200ms or so). Turned out the guy was building sites via an FTP editor in a production with all his clients on one server, with a lot of CSS/JS files being included in each page.

After a few emails back and forth, I switched him to WAMP for local development.

Hot damn, that's taking "move fast and break things" to a whole new level. Still, good on you for taking the time to suggest a better way to do things.
