How to hide resources of apps and extensions?

In developer mode, I can see java script code used in the installed apps and extensions. Is it possible to prevent resources within apps and extensions from being inspected by the others?

Thank you!

In general any client side code (living in the browser) cannot be hidden from inspection. For chrome extensions specifically all resources/source code will actually be local on the client file system.

For example, on Mac the extension files will all be unpacked here:

~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/Extension

If you would like to hide and prevent inspection, you must put it server side.

Hope this helps, Peter
