## Description

Canvas Browser Extension syncs your tabs with a canvas server instance. Your browser can be configured to automatically switch your active tabs when switching contexts - in canvas represented as paths, for example /work/project-a or /travel/2025/barcelona. Binding multiple users to the same context enables collaborative work on top of a set of tabs.
