README
A productivity tool to boost your browser workflow!
Ctrl + Shift + Space and boom :tada:!
Most of us have dozens of open tabs, and it quickly becomes cumbersome to manage them efficiently. UnTab is a browser extension that gives you superpowers by making it possible to search through open tabs and perform common actions with just a few keystrokes. This in turn boosts productivity and makes you look like a hero!
UnTab is officially supported on following browsers:
- Google Chrome(via Chromium support)
- Firefox browser
- Microsoft Edge(via Chromium support)
UnTab _might_ also be compatible with other browsers that use Chromium under the hood.
## Demo
## Project Setup
### Clone the repository
```bash
git clone https://github.com/blenderskool/untab.git
cd untab
```
### Understanding the directory structure
- `src`: Primary source directory where the magic happens!
- `background`: Background Script for the extension
- `content`: Content Script for the extension
- `components`: UI components written using [Svelte](https://svelte.dev). (App.svelte is the main root component)
- `manifest.json`: Extension manifest file
- `dist`: This directory contains the built files from the `src`
- `rollup.config.js`: Project build configuration is setup using rollup.
### Build the project
To install the extension on the browser, first build the project using the following command.
#### Chrome and other Chromium based browsers
```bash
npm run build
```
#### Firefox
```bash
npm run build:firefox
```
All the built files are generated in the `dist` directory.
### Install on Browser
#### Chrome and other Chromium based browsers
- Go to `chrome://extensions`.
- Turn ON `Developer mode`.
- Click on `Load Unpacked`.
- Select the `dist` folder and it will check for `manifest.json` on its own. The extension should now show up on the list.
- Go to any page and press Ctrl + Shift + Space or Command + Shift + Space (on Mac) to open UnTab.
- NOTE: Whenever, the build files are changed, to get the changes synced with the installed extension, click on the reload icon next to the installed extension.
#### Firefox
- Go to `about:debugging` and select `This Firefox` on the left sidebar.
- Click on `Load Temporary Add-on...` button.
- Select the `manifest.json` file in `dist` folder that was generated after the build step. The extension should now show up on the list.
- Go to any page and press Ctrl + Shift + Space or Command + Shift + Space (on Mac) to open UnTab.
- NOTE: Whenever, the build files are changed, to get the changes synced with the installed extension, click on the `Reload` button in the extension that was installed in the 3rd step.
## Privacy and Analytics
- UnTab **does not store or send** anything searched/selected in UnTab interface to a server.
- The search index(which includes opened tabs, recent browser history, bookmarks, etc.) prepared by UnTab is generated on the client side everytime and is **never sent or stored** in a server.
### Analytics
Analytics is kept to a minimum and [Google Measurement protocol](https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/protocol/v1) is being used for these basic analytics. Unlike the regular Google Analytics used on websites, Google Measurement protocol only records the data explicitly defined in code.
- Browser UserAgent is recorded.
- Browser location is recorded.
- Fingerprinting or Returning browser sessions are **not recorded**.
Following **events** are tracked:
- Opening the UnTab interface.
- Selecting some item in the UnTab interface.
(NOTE: The content itself in any form is **not sent**, just an indication that above event occurred)
