A browser extension for Chrome, Firefox, and other Chrome-based browsers that adds a button to clone and open a repository with DevPod. Install DevPod and this extension, and you'll have a convenient button to clone repositories into clean development environments!
This extension does not access your repositories or collect any private information. It just figures out the right repository and branch name, and sends you to devpod.sh/open when you click the button.
- Adds a DevPod button on Github and GitLab
- On the main repository page
- When exploring branches
- On PRs
The extension is available on the Chrome web store and Firefox Add-Ons! Just click these links, and download the extension with one click.

To build the extension yourself, you'll need NodeJS 22 or later. Run npm install
to install the dependencies, then npm run build
to build the
extension. You should get two files, devpod-ext-chrome-x.y.z.zip
and devpod-ext-firefox.x.y.z.zip
.
Contributions are welcome! To develop the extension, using NodeJS 22 or later run npm install
, then npm run dev
. This will start the development server, and try to launch Chrome using a clean profile and with the extension preloaded.
You can develop the extension inside a devcontainer, a devcontainer configuration is provided. However, the browser launch won't work and auto-reload also does not seem to function properly. If you can figure out these issues, please let me know!
