What is Requirify?
"Requirify" is a powerful and convenient Chrome extension designed to empower developers by allowing them to use the require() function directly in their Chrome browser console. Once installed and activated for the current tab, coding becomes more efficient and effective, as developers can directly call modules without needing to write or modify the code in the back-end.

Doesn't work ("VM1096:1 Uncaught ReferenceError: require is not defined at <anonymous>:1:1") and that's after I wasted time on the project's github page trying to find very basic instructions on how to use his script.

I love this extension but it's not working anymore. Problem is wzrd.in I think. I have to remove it and find a better option.

Would you pls update it? Throws 'Refused to connect to 'https://wzrd.in/bundle/d3@latest/' because it violates the following Content Security Policy directive: "connect-src 'self' uploads.github.com... '
