About this Fork

I hacked the original extension because it didn't work the way I wanted it to. That's all there is to this.

What changed? Not a lot:

• Instead of the inane e/<time> label format, any issue label prefixed with Estimate: will now be counted. Feel free to modify this in the pattern and CSS
• Instead of renaming the issue label itself, no change to the issue label buttons is made. This ensured consistency with the default UI
• The estimated completion time will be displayed at the top of each column in the following format: "X minutes (X/60 Hours)"
• I updated the name and description of the extension to make it easier to understand and differ from the original in the extensions panel
• Removed the spammy console output (though the setInterval I didn't bother to remove, even if it annoys me greatly)
• Add experimental support for fractions (this might break in some edge cases, though I haven't encountered any)

This is how it currently looks for me:

The UI can likely be improved further, but for the time being I haven't bothered.

Installing this Fork

Since it's not published anywhere else, you must install it manually to use this version:

1. Open chrome://extensions in a new tab
2. Enable developer mode (slider to the top right as of the time of writing)
3. Click "load unpacked" and select the folder where the extension code (manifest.json at the root level) is located

Instead of the arbitrary amounts of time given in the example above, I recommend using a more readable format. I personally use "minutes", so instead of e/1 the issue label will be called Estimate: 120 minutes and this adds 120 min (2 hours) as the summary text.

Contributing

If you want to add onto this or find a problem, feel free to open an issue. I can't promise I'll have time to do much, but at least I'll generally respond to queries (unlike the original author) :P

Using it on Firefox

I've managed to make it load the extension by doing the following:

1. Open about:debugging
2. Go to This Firefox
3. Click Load Temporary Add-on
4. Select the manifest.json file

Unfortunately I was unable to load it permanently via the regular addons menu, as Firefox claims the file is corrupted. No idea what's wrong with it, but I didn't want to spend any more time on it.
