## Description

<strong>Declutter your mind — and your tabs.</strong>

Workspaces brings project-based browsing to Firefox. Group your tabs into dedicated workspaces, switch between them effortlessly, and keep your workflow organized.
<blockquote>⚠️ <strong>IMPORTANT: To fully benefit from this extension, make sure Firefox is set to restore previous tabs at startup.</strong>
Go to <strong>Settings → General → Startup → “Open tabs from previous session”</strong> and enable it.</blockquote>
Without this setting, restored tabs may not persist across restarts — and you’ll miss out on the full power of Workspaces.
