To use the extension in a chrome-based browser, you need to:

• download the file rosettastonks-chrome.tar.gz from the latest release on your machine.
• create a folder named rosettastonks somewhere on your machine to store the extension
• run the following command in the rosettastonks folder.

$ tar xvzf /path/to/rosettastonks-chrome.tar.gz

2. Using nix package manager

Instead of the previous commands, if you are on a nix system supporting flakes, you can run the following commands, which will install a folder under the path /tmp/rosettastonks with all the files.

$ nix build --out-link "/tmp/rosettastonks" github:m1dugh/RosettaStonks#chrome

The folder is now installed under /tmp/rosettastonks/

This part if for all users indepently of whether you are using github method or nix method.

In your browser:

• go to chrome://extensions
• check the Developer mode toggle
• click Load unpacked
• Select your rosettastonks folder

• download the file rosettastonks.xpi from the latest release.
• alternatively, if using nix package manager with flake support, your can run the following command.

$ nix build --out-link "/tmp/rosettatonks.xpi" github:m1dugh/RosettaStonks#mozilla

• go to about:addons in your browser
• click the settings button and go to Debug addons.
• click Load Temporary Add-On
• select the /tmp/rosettastonks.xpi file in the file picker.

Warning: This method only installs the extension temporarily, meaning that if you close your browser, the addon will be uninstalled. This is due to firefox policies not allowing unverified extensions to be used.

To add time on foundations product, you need to go to your exercises, and click ignore or resolve one question at least. Once this is done, a time field should appear on the extension page on which you can add your time.

To add time on fluency builder product, you need to go to your exercises, and answer at least one exercise. If the add time field does not appear, it means that no time request was caught, you need to refresh the question and answer it once again. To have the time added, you need to finish the lesson you used to add time.

Note: If you don't see the add time field, it means that the actions you took on Rosetta stone website did not lead to adding legitimate time, and therefore, you need to answer other questions.

To validate a lesson, one needs to start a lesson, and go through all of the questions through the ignore button on the bottom right. Once all the questions have been seen, clicking the validate lesson button should validate the lesson. If not, go back to your home page, click on the same lesson, it should ask you Do you want to continue or reset ?, you can choose both, and validate lesson again until it works. It should work after 3/4 times maximum.

Right now, the validate lesson feature is not available on rosetta stonks.
