Manifest.json

The manifest.json gets generated whenever the build command is run and can be found in the .ntli/site/static folder of an extension project. It is a JSON file that contains the metadata of the extension that has been created. It is used in the following ways:

• The Netlify UI uses it to display the correct information about an extension
• The Netlify UI uses it to determine whether the extension is a connector
• The Netlify UI uses it to help the UI pass a header to Jigsaw with the correct API version
• Netlify build services use it to determine whether the extension contains a build event handler

Please note, that the above may not be an exhaustive list of uses for the manifest.json.
