Hello,
In this version, I changed the Build process and added a lint check to it, which you can check in the Readme.
There are still some errors like speak.play that are correct in the extension's functionality, but I will fix it for Firefox in the future.
I also changed the name, but I left the UUID as before.
The rest of the changes are minor.
