hi! I am buildling for Appwrite hackathon.

I am building a chrome extension. Currently my extension cant use Appwrite backend because of this issue:- Please checkout https://github.com/appwrite/appwrite/issues/5576

Thankyou!

TL;DR
The user had an issue with their Chrome extension not supporting a platform. The problem was solved by adding the extension ID to the web platform hostname. The solution was discussed in a GitHub thread.

What happens if you add a web platform where the hostname is your extension id?

extension://<extension-id>

So you are suggesting to just add <extension-id> in web platform hostname

I have not tried that. I will get back to you

Can you make a separate comment in the discussion instead of replying to your previous comment since it's a different suggestion?
