iChrome

iChrome

iChrome is a highly customizable, iGoogle homepage replacement extension influenced by Google Now. It includes almost 100 HD themes, over 30 widgets, support for multiple tabs, "OK Google" hotword detection and voice search, internationalization support and almost complete customization.

This is the full source for iChrome except for API secrets which have been replaced with empty strings ("").

Roadmap

V2.1.4

• Various minor updates and tweaks
• App sorting support
• New widgets including Quotes, Chrome Bookmarks, Site Link, Timer, HTML and Google Tasks

V2.x

• A real website

V2.2

These are very much in flux, any of them could be postponed or skipped.

• A widgets store that other developers can contribute to, possibly it isn't quite the main focus of the release
• iChrome Pro:
  • Shareable tabs
  • Prioritized support and suggestions
  • The ability to create up to 50, synced, custom, dynamic themes (video, slideshows, time and date dependent) that are hosted on iChrome servers
  • The ability to group and disconnect synced computers
  • The ability to configure a backup schedule
  • Up to 50 online backups per computer
  • A dashboard to manage (copy, remove from account, disconnect, reset, restore from any - including another computers - backup and group) a computers configuration
  • The ability to permanently save up to 50 configurations or backups separately from the 50 per computer
  • "Parental" controls with the ability to blacklist widgets and lock configurations remotely
  • More, I'm still thinking it through

Style Guide

I follow a more complicated style guide, but here's the basic overview:

• Code is indented with 4 space tabs, never spaces
• Double quotes are always used unless the string contains double quotes, such as with HTML
• Trailing semicolons are always used
• When multiple variables are being defined at the top of a function they should generally be combined into one var statement
• Ternary operators are fine especially for string concatenation
• Performance should always be favored over readability for small snippets. i.e. $(body).append($('<div></div>').attr("data-id", id.split("-")[1])) instead of var elm = $('<div></div>'), id = id.split("-")[1]; elm.attr("data-id", id)....
