+Tips
+
+- Bypass caching
+  When injecting link element for css file, the problem of caching can be annoying so append something in the url like this
+  ```js
+	// Create a link element for the CSS file
+	const linkElement = document.createElement('link');
+	linkElement.rel = 'stylesheet';
+	linkElement.href = browser.runtime.getURL('styles.css') + '?v=' + Date.now(); // Append a timestamp
+	document.head.appendChild(linkElement);
+
+	```
+- Reset injected element
+  When we inject DOM element and reload extension previous one wont get removed unless page is reloaded so tag all those inserted element with extension name or by adding it in class.
+  `contentScript.js`
+  ```js
+	
+	// removing elements of class of ext_name
+	function reset1(){
+
+	 	const elements=document.querySelectorAll(`.${ext_name}`)
+
+	 	for(let ele of elements){
+	 		ele.remove()
+	 	}
+
+
+	 }
+
+	 reset1();
+
+	const navibar= document.createElement("div")
+	navibar.className=`${ext_name} navigation_bar`
+	navibar.innerHTML=`
+		<button class=" nav_btn"> All Replies </button>
+	`
+
+	
+	console.log('navibar: ',navibar.outerHTML);
+
+
+	
+	const app=document.querySelector("body")
+	app.insertBefore(navibar, app.children[0])
+
+	```
