## Description

**Bookmark Tree for Tree Style Tab** is an extension designed to work seamlessly with Tree Style Tab and similar add-ons like Sidebery to bookmark and restore tab trees. It allows bookmarking of entire tab trees or selected tabs using a simple context menu, including support for multi-select with tools like the Multiple Tab Handler or Firefox's native selection.

Restoration is straightforward: right-click a bookmark folder or individual bookmarks to recreate tab trees. The extension supports both legacy and newer Tree Style Tab bookmark formats, offering tools to migrate between formats. Compared to Tree Style Tab's native features, Bookmark Tree provides more granular control, including partial tree bookmarking and flexible restoration options.

Ideal for users organizing tabs in hierarchical structures, it enhances productivity by preserving complex tab setups efficiently within bookmarks.

## Review summary

Users appreciate that the add-on enables saving and restoring tab trees with their folder hierarchies, bridging Tree Style Tabs with Firefox bookmarks. However, multiple reviews point out issues with preserving exact tab order and hierarchy, lack of lazy-loading on restore causing performance drawbacks, and missing support or integration with other add-ons like Sidebery and theming options for a cohesive visual experience.

### Pros

- Facilitates saving and restoring tab trees with subfolders automatically.
- Acts as a useful link between Tree Style Tabs (TST) and Firefox's bookmark system.
- Restores tab hierarchies effectively.

### Cons

- Does not properly preserve the order and hierarchy of tabs/bookmarks.
- Lacks support for lazy-loading when restoring tabs, causing all tabs to load simultaneously.
- No integration or support with Sidebery add-on or theming (e.g., dark mode) to match appearance.
