Extension Verification

Verified extensions have been vetted by the Owlbear Rodeo team and community.

Verified extensions are given a the green tick next to their name in the extension store

Below are the guidelines they have to pass to gain verification:

• Extension design uses accessible colors
• Extension design uses accessible font sizes
• Extension is legible with Owlbear Rodeo’s light and dark theme
• Extension is fully functional on mobile devices (1)
• Extension is fully functional across all major browsers (2)
• Extension requires no other extensions to be installed
• Extension functions in a private browsing window or with cookies disabled
• Extension makes proper use of the Owlbear Rodeo APIs (3)
• Extension functions in all configurations of an Owlbear Rodeo Room (4)
• Extension provides user support for queries, issues and requests
• Extension has no known bugs
• Extension manifest is hosted on a custom domain controlled by the extension developer

Notes:

1. This includes iPhone’s, Android devices as well as tablets such as an iPad.
2. Major browsers include Chrome, Firefox and Safari
3. For example the Scene API is only used to store data that shares the Scene lifecycle
4. Valid configurations include a Room with a Scene open and no Scene open

Also note that the term “fully functional” above means all extension functionally works correctly whereas the term “functional” means the extension still functions but some features may not be available.

Verification Process

Once your extension has been accepted onto the store to start the verification process respond to your pull request with the message /verify <extension name> where <extension-name> is the key used in the extensions.json file in your pull request.

Once this has been done a thread will be created on the Owlbear Rodeo Discord tracking the status of all the above guidelines.

Once the community has verified that all the guidelines have been passed the Owlbear Rodeo team will add the verified badge to your extension.
