# New tab
A custom "New tab" for Google Chrome.
## Introduction
I wanted to have some control over what I see when I open a new tab in Chrome. I was also looking for a great way to stay up-to-date with some of my RSS feeds without hassle.
So I built a client-side RSS-feed parser that runs fast enough to process feeds on the fly.
Works best with Chrome's "theme colour" Black. This was made for Chrome but generally should work in any modern browser.
## Features
- All-in-one html file `index.html`
- Optimised for high focus
- Ready to be forked, so you can
- Add your own RSS feeds
- Configure amount of articles to show
- Change anything else however you like
#### Caveat
Some hosts don't allow cross-origin requests from **_origin: null_**, which basically means you won't be able to access its feed from a local html file. In that case you have to use the online version of the html file. For example by hosting it on GitHub pages.
## Installation
- Install [Custom New Tab URL](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/custom-new-tab-url/mmjbdbjnoablegbkcklggeknkfcjkjia) plugin.
- Clone this repository or simply download the `index.html`
- Set the URL to your local `index.html` file. For example: `file:///C:/Users/Webber/repositories/new-tab/index.html`.
- Open a new tab and enjoy!
