part of the package. The code here is to ensure a seamless transition from
local assets which have been converted to remote assets. The only side

Chrome has getManifest(), Safari doesn't have anything, Firefox has an
asynchronous API...
So, instead of using extension APIs, store the common informations
(extension name, version, homepage url) in a file (vapi-appinfo.js), which
can be included when it's needed (its data will be available at vAPI.app.____).
The file's content is updated each time the extension is being built, so
it shouldn't be modified manually.
.jshintrc's otion-set is a personal choice, merely a suggestion.
Beside that, it includes some common globals for specific browsers, so
there's no need to set the globals in every .js file.
In order to force strict coding, "use strict" directive was added into
every .js file.
