Open Extensionly, point it at your repository, and you’re minutes away from a repeatable release flow. Start by linking your GitHub project, selecting the browser targets you ship to (Chrome, Firefox, and IE), and importing your existing manifest. Add store accounts once—Extensionly keeps publishing keys in a secure vault—and map channels like dev, beta, and stable. Set team roles so developers can push builds while reviewers approve listings. With this setup, every release follows the same, predictable path without manual store uploads or ad‑hoc scripts.

On shipping day, create a new version from your main branch or a tagged commit. Extensionly packages the code, runs linting and manifest checks, validates permissions, and assembles store assets (icons, screenshots, and descriptions) from your repo. Preview how your listing will look in each marketplace, update notes per channel, and schedule the rollout by time or percentage. When you’re ready, trigger a multi-browser release with one action. The platform handles store submissions, waits for approvals, and updates status live so you can track progress across Chrome, Firefox, and IE in one view. If something looks off, cancel before it goes live or pause a staged rollout.

Prefer automation? Drop Extensionly into your CI pipeline. Use its API to create drafts from tags, bump versions, attach artifacts, and promote builds from canary to stable after tests pass. Webhooks let you react to review outcomes, so your pipeline can retry on transient failures or notify a Slack channel on approvals. Templates keep metadata consistent across browsers, while environment variables and protected secrets ensure keys never touch build logs. Every action is recorded with user, timestamp, and diff, supporting compliance, audits, and team-wide visibility. Approvals, checklists, and required sign-offs help larger teams ship safely without slowing down small ones.

After launch, stay ahead of issues with targeted alerts. Configure rules for criteria such as store rejection, review comments, submission timeouts, permission changes, unusual error rates, or download spikes. Receive notifications by email, Slack, or webhook. If an alert triggers, you can roll back a version, freeze a release track, or push a hotfix to specific browsers without affecting others. Dashboards highlight cross-browser parity, version drift, and upcoming certificate or key expirations. With Extensionly, your day-to-day looks like writing code, tagging a release, and letting the platform take care of the publishing grind—while you keep full control over timing, quality gates, and incident response.
