Three steps in a terminal. ~3 minutes if you already have Chrome, Node.js, and pnpm.
Done means the Airglow icon is in Chrome’s extension list, user scripts are allowed on it, and pnpm airglow dev is serving manifests on http://localhost:3001.

​
Steps

​
1. Clone the SDK repo

The public SDK repo ships the Chrome extension and the local app server. 
git clone https://github.com/airglow-inc/airglow-sdk.git
cd airglow-sdk

​
2. Load the extension in Chrome

  1. Open chrome://extensions.
  2. Turn on Developer mode.
  3. Click Load unpacked.
  4. Select airglow-sdk/extension.
  5. Click the new Airglow card’s Details, then toggle on Allow user scripts.
Airglow appears in the Chrome extensions list, is enabled, and has user scripts allowed. (Chrome 138+ requires the user-scripts toggle before Airglow apps can run on pages.)

​
3. Start the local app server

The extension talks to a local app server to pick up apps while you build and edit them. 
pnpm install
pnpm airglow dev
Keep this terminal running while you build or use apps.
curl http://localhost:3001/api/apps/manifests returns JSON.
