Whitespace developer tools

Browser tools for SharePoint and Matomo

Small, privacy-respecting browser extensions that surface SharePoint site, user, and page metadata, and confirm that Matomo analytics is running and correctly configured. Everything reads the page you are already on. Nothing leaves your browser.

Extensions

Download a build

Manifest V3 builds, packaged per browser. Each ZIP contains the extension ready to load. The same build serves Chrome, Edge and Opera; Firefox ships a separate package.

Install

Load an unpacked build

No store account needed for internal use. Unzip a build, then load the folder in developer mode.

  1. Step 1

    Unzip the build

    Download a ZIP above and extract it. The manifest.json must sit at the root of the extracted folder.

  2. Step 2

    Open the extensions page

    Go to chrome://extensions (or edge://extensions) and turn on Developer mode. In Firefox, use about:debugging → This Firefox.

  3. Step 3

    Load unpacked

    Click Load unpacked and select the extracted folder. Open a *.sharepoint.com page and click the toolbar icon.

Debug without installing

Browser console snippets

The same checks the extensions run, as standalone snippets. Open DevTools (F12) on the relevant page, paste a snippet into the Console, and run it. The SharePoint snippets must run on a *.sharepoint.com tab; the Matomo snippets work on any site that loads Matomo.
