Extension/Addon development
I see some others asking about deploying extensions to the store, but I seem to be stuck at finding the new documentation on how to make an extension.
I see the new https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/devtools-guide-chromium
However the Extensions development documents seem to still refer to current version of Edge extensions.

Hi GDomjan
here are the newly released documentations:
Get started building extensions for the new Microsoft Edge
Initial Developer Documentation
- Wade DorrellBrass Contributor
+1 on "how do I publish an extension to the (insider) store", especially because I'd like to see early testing of more diverse extensions than the 118 currently listed at https://microsoftedge.microsoft.com/insider-addons/category/EdgeExtensions. None of those are a chrome_url_overrides extension as far as I can tell, like the new-tab extension I maintain.
- Elliot KirkFormer EmployeeThank you GDomjan for your feedback. We are working to get our extension documentation and processes ready for the preview channels of Microsoft Edge. I will let the team know about this issue.

Elliot Kirk Any news? I'm sure you'd like to have plugins working on the new Edge...

Elliot Kirk While there's no specific documentation, can you point to any sample of native messaging on the new Edge?
- ArunKBuduriCopper Contributor
Elliot Kirk Does the Edge Dev Channel support native messaging host (yet)? I have an extension that needs the native host in order to function.

Elliot Kirk I'm the developer of WinchPass, a https://winchpass.com/.
I'm selling it on the https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/winchpass/kalncabcefgchiphkgoiiglapkoopeal for a small amount of money and I would like to do so on the Edge Addons store. Where do I go to publish my extension, and how do I set the price?
