Chromium extension helping with organizing browser tabs and groups on more than one window.

leap

Leap is a chromium extension helping with organizing browser tabs and groups on more than one window.
Currently the extension is avaible on Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome.

Installation

Download the repository to a folder and load the folder to you browser's extensions.

1. browser://extensions
2. Load unpacked.
3. Turn it on.

Usage

Extension pop-up

After clicking on an extension icon pop-up opens. A user can choose a group to which the tab is to be moved.
The tab is current active tab and it is moved to the chosen group, to basically "other" window.
At this point the extension supports two opened windows because the tab is moved to first not-current window but over-two-windows-support is to be developed.

New tabs automatically in active group.

When new tab is opened, it is moved to previous tab's group so if you are in "Basic" group and you open new tab, it is moved to "Basic" group. In combination with Collapsing groups feature it works amazingly well and everything is on its place.

Collapsing groups

On active tab change, the extension gets the tab's groupId and collapses every other group so you can clearly see the most important tabs - current used group's tabs.

Contributing

You can contribute to code, the prefered way is to contact me first and talk about your idea. We'll disscuss it and hopefully colaborate successfully.

leap's Issues

README and description needed.

As above.

TypeError; id is undefined

When moving a tab from one window to another (of course with specified group), an error occurs:

Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'id')
    at background.js:40:61

Despite the error, action is executed properly - it's not a high priority issue but should be fixed.

Config page and file needed

Users should be able to configure groups they want to have.

There should be a page where user sets a list of desired, constant and configurable groups (the same for every browser's window).

TODO:

1. context-menu (right-click on extension icon)
2. config page (link in context-menu)
3. configuration saved to file
4. adapting old code to new feature (e.g. as many buttons as groups, accurate function calls)
