How to run content script without page refresh after extension install?

[Abhinav-birdeye]

Hey everyone,
I'm grateful for this project, it makes building extensions a breeze.

The problem

I have a content script (UI) defined in the manifest (index.tsx). When the extension is installed, I want the content script to run automatically without needing a page refresh. How can this be done?

What has been tried

If the answer is to register or execute content script from the background worker, I haven't been able to do that. Just a slew of bugs, and ambiguity on the way to import the TSX file.

I am just a beginner here, trying to figure things out. Thank you :)

Try content scripts - they work right after installation - you need to refresh the page using something like chrome.tabs.reload( tabId?: number, reloadProperties?: object, callback?: function)

If you really need to execute a script onInstsall from a service_worker try "dynamic content scripts" from the jacks medium article
