Browser Installation

When running Jabra-JS in the browser, a few additional components are recommended to get the full set of functionalities: a Chrome Extension and a native application on your computer - the Chrome Host. The native application will do the USB-device communication and the Chrome Extension will send messages back and forth between the browser and the native application.

This installation process is similar to the Browser SDK in the generation 2 SDK - however, the generation 2 extension and native app will not work with generation 3.

Alternatively, the library supports communication over WebHID, which does not require the Chrome Extension or Chrome Host. However, this transport mechanism comes with a few limitations described in the article about WebHID.

Please note that interactive code samples in the documentation assume installation of the Chrome Extension and Chrome Host.
