Context

Our client, a platform called Praiz, wanted to provide their users with a tool to record and upload video call recordings. They wanted an extension for Google Chrome that would enable users to do this easily and securely.

Need

The client needed a developer to create a Chrome extension that would allow users to record their video calls and upload them to the Praiz platform. They wanted the extension to have the following capabilities:

• A sign-on workflow using an Auth0-like tool for secure authentication

• Integration with the Praiz platform for seamless transfer of video files via S3 buckets

• Extension Chrome saving the browser screen to AWS in Manifest V3

Solution

We developed the Chrome extension that met all the requirements of the client.

Here's how we did it for the Chrome Extension part :

• Developed in Manifest V3.

• Browser screen saved when the user clicks on the button of the extension, and upload to AWS.

• A sign-on workflow with an Auth0-like tool for secure authentication.

And for the AWS part :

• We used the AWS SDK for JavaScript v3 to enable integration with AWS services within the extension.

• We used Webpack to bundle the necessary libraries and modules into a single .js file for use in the extension's script.

• We used the multi-part upload to make continuously upload to the bucket.
