Use the correct manifest file for your browser. Either rename the browser specific file to `manifest.json` before loading the addon or symlink it to the correct location, e.g. `ln -s manifest-firefox.json manifest.json`.
- Firefox
- Open `about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox`
- Click on *Load Temporary Add-on*
- Select the *manifest.json* file to load the addon.
- Chrome / Chromium
- Open `chrome://extensions/`
- Toggle *Developer mode* on top right
- Click on *Load unpacked*
- Open the folder containing the *manifest.json* file.
