Download PICAXE .axe file to a device

PICAXE programmer is a Chrome extension designed for Chromebook users to download the .axe files created by the cloud version of Blockly for PICAXE onto a PICAXE chip. This is necessary as web browsers do not allow online websites direct access to USB/COM ports. This extension essentially becomes the middleman between your .axe file and PICAXE chip, programming it using the AXE027 USB cable.
