What is Axure RP Extension for Chrome?
'Axure RP Extension for Chrome' is a functional tool that advocates the viewing of locally published Axure RP prototypes (HTML files) directly in Google Chrome. The extension purely requires high access level to facilitate viewing via file:// protocol, ensuring no tracking or accessing of user information. It is important to enable the 'Allow access to file URLs' setting post installation. The extension doesn't support opening of Axure RP project files for editing, nor is it needed for viewing web-based prototypes.
