## Description

Turn every new tab into a beautiful, searchable bookmark dashboard with thumbnails, folders, and powerful customization.

Bookmark Launcher replaces your new tab page with a fast, visual bookmark grid. Pick any bookmark folder as your home view, navigate into subfolders, and find what you need instantly with fuzzy search across titles and URLs. Thumbnails are captured automatically and stored in separate light and dark slots so previews always match your current theme.
