Running user scripts without Tamper Monkey

Question

I have been experimenting with Tampermonkey and making scripts to change web elements. I ran the following user script in Tamper Monkey :

// ==UserScript== // @name "job changer" // @namespace Marshmellows // @version 0.1 // @description Change 'Jobs' in stackoverflow to Hello! // @match http://stackoverflow.com/* // @copyright // @require http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js // ==/UserScript== $(document).ready(function() { document.getElementById('nav-jobs').innerHTML = 'Hello!'; });

This js did what it was supposed by using Tamper Monkey. However, if I manually install this js as an extension for chrome, the script no longer works. Can somebody please offer than guidance for this problem.

Thanks

You can either avoid using @require as it's not supported natively and write in vanilla JavaScript:

// ==UserScript== // @name "job changer" // @namespace Marshmellows // @version 0.1 // @description Change 'Jobs' in stackoverflow to Hello! // @match https://stackoverflow.com/* // @grant none // @run-at document-start // ==/UserScript== document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() { document.getElementById('nav-jobs').innerHTML = 'Hello!'; }, false);

Or add jQuery directly inside the code:
How can I use jQuery in Greasemonkey scripts in Google Chrome?
