Chrome extension
Install Space-O Loom
Space-O Loom is self-hosted, so the recorder isn't on the Chrome Web Store — you load it directly into Chrome. It takes about a minute.
- 1
Download & unzip
Download the extension and unzip it to a folder you'll keep (Chrome loads it from this folder, so don't delete it afterwards).
- 2
Open Chrome extensions
Go to
chrome://extensionsand turn on Developer mode (top-right toggle). - 3
Load unpacked
Click Load unpacked and select the unzipped
distfolder. The Space-O Loom card appears — pin it for quick access. - 4
Connect & sign in
Open the side panel, enter your Space-O Loom server URL, then sign in with the account your admin created. Record → it uploads automatically and the share link opens in a new tab.
Use Google Chrome. Screen recording runs from an offscreen document that other Chromium browsers may not support. On macOS, grant Chrome Screen Recordingpermission in System Settings → Privacy & Security the first time.
After an update, click the ↻ reload icon on the extension's card in chrome://extensions — Chrome doesn't auto-reload unpacked extensions.
