# Running the examples
Assuming you have a checkout of the Puppeteer repo and have run yarn (or npm i) to install the dependencies, the examples can be run from the root folder like so:
```sh
NODE_PATH=../ node examples/search.js
```
# Tips & Tricks
### Load a Chrome extension
By default, Puppeteer disables extensions when launching Chrome. You can load a specific
extension using:
```js
const browser = await puppeteer.launch({
headless: false,
args: [
'--disable-extensions-except=/path/to/extension/',
'--load-extension=/path/to/extension/',
]
});
```
