I recently developed a chrome extension named "Paper to Notion."
Paper to Notion - Chrome Web Store
A Chrome extension that imports paper metadata from Crossref to Notion using a DOI.
chromewebstore.google.com
Once you input the DOI of the paper, it automatically export it to your Notion DB.

Structure is very simple: it calls Crossref API to retrieve metadata and uses Notion API to conntect the database.
I used the chrome extension development framework, WXT, which made the development much more easier.
With tagpr, it generates the release zip file automatically, once I pushed any changes to the main branch.
My GitHub Actions workflow file is here:

- 'v*'
