## Description

FlashTab turns every new browser tab into a short javascript interview practice session.

Each time you open a new tab, you get 5 JavaScript flash cards — question, hint, answer, then a quick self-rating. Progress and streaks stay on your device. No account. No cloud sync. No distractions.

Who it's for

• Developers preparing for a technical interview who want daily reps without opening another app
• Engineers who want to stay sharp between jobs — keep core JavaScript concepts fresh in a few minutes a day
• Anyone who prefers spaced practice over cramming the night before

How it works
<ol><li>Open a new tab</li><li>Read the question (optional hint)</li><li>Reveal the answer</li><li>Rate how well you knew it (Again / Hard / Good / Easy)</li><li>Finish the set of 5 — your streak updates automatically</li></ol>
FlashTab uses a simple spaced-repetition style schedule so cards you struggle with come back sooner, and cards you know well wait longer.

Privacy

All progress is stored locally in your browser (chrome.storage). FlashTab does not collect personal data, does not track browsing, and does not send anything to a server.

Version 1 focuses on JavaScript. More topics may come later.
