# Monochrome Tidal Origin

While the website works without the extension with the use of proxies, it is recommended to install it to prevent various annoying issues. The website works best with the extension on.

## Installation

1. Click on the **Code** button on the [home page](https://github.com/monochrome-music/monochrome) of the repo and click **Download ZIP**. (or download the [latest main branch ZIP](https://github.com/monochrome-music/monochrome/archive/refs/heads/main.zip))
2. Unpack the **.zip** archive with your archive program (like WinRar or 7Zip on Windows)
3. Open extensions page in your Chromium-based browser (Or `chrome://extensions/`) and make sure **Developer mode** is turned on.
4. Click on the **Load unpacked** and navigate to the directory you just unpacked.

5. Inside of it, there's a directory **extension**. **SELECT THAT DIRECTORY INSTEAD OF THE MAIN ONE!** It should contain file "manifest.json".
