solving issue #1255

This project implements Hot Module Replacement (HMR) for a React-based Chrome extension, allowing developers to see real-time changes in their popup component without needing to refresh the entire extension. The following outlines the configuration and structure necessary for achieving this setup.

#### Key Components

1. **Webpack Configuration (`webpack.config.js`)**:
   - Configures Webpack for development and production modes, specifying the entry point and output settings.
   - Enables HMR in the development server for instant updates.

2. **Entry Point (`src/popup.js`)**:
   - Contains the main logic for the popup component, integrating the HMR logic to allow for module updates without a full reload.

3. **Index File (`src/index.js`)**:
   - Updated to support HMR with checks for `module.hot`, ensuring that the component re-renders on updates without refreshing the entire popup.

4. **Package Configuration (`package.json`)**:
   - Includes scripts for building and serving the application, specifying configurations needed for both development and production.

5. **Development Server**:
   - The command `npm start` launches a development server with HMR enabled, providing a smooth development experience.

#### Summary of Changes

- **HMR Logic**:
  - Added in `popup.js` using `if (module.hot) { ... }` to ensure updates are reflected in real-time.
  - Implemented in `index.js` to facilitate automatic re-rendering of the popup component on code changes.

- **Webpack Dev Server**: Configured with `hot: true` to support HMR functionality.

- **File Structure**: Organized files into a clear structure, facilitating maintainability and ease of access.

### Benefits

Implementing HMR improves the development workflow by reducing the time spent on refreshing and waiting for the extension to reload. This results in a more productive environment, allowing for faster iteration and debugging of features.
