AWS Navbar Region Color Extension

An OSS version of the "AWS console regions color" extension, a browser extension that changes the color of the AWS navbar depending on the region

Reasons for the fork

• Other extension was broken by an update on AWS' side
• Adds new regions that were missing (including gov)
• Fixed support for Firefox

Philosophy

All the extension code is kept extremely simple in order to allow anyone to contribute easily, this means:

• Uses no transpilation tools, only basic HTML and Javascript
• Only include minimal number of files
• Keep code extremely simple

Development

On Firefox:

1. Open the Debugging page by navigating to about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox.
2. Click on the "Load Temporary Add-on..." button and select the extension directory.

On Chrome (untested, likely to be broken):

1. Open the Extension Management page by navigating to chrome://extensions.
2. Enable Developer Mode by clicking the toggle switch next to Developer mode.
3. Click the LOAD UNPACKED button and select the extension directory.
