Chrome extensions, dumb question

I found a few topics dating back to 2016, about an extension called ‘foxified’, that allegedly let firefox install chrome extensions into firefox;

The extension is no longer there and I did not want to necro the topic. so is there a magic spell to convert a chrome extension into Firefox ?

I should mention I can’t tell the difference between a line of code and a phone number.

Thx.

Hi,

Sometimes, converting a webextension from Chrome to Firefox is easy.

Documentation on that can be found at https://extensionworkshop.com/documentation/develop/porting-a-google-chrome-extension/

The best “Magic spell” I can suggest is https://www.extensiontest.com/ where it will tell you if your chrome crx file is compatible with Firefox (or what need to be changed).
