## Description

🔗 A quick-links grid with favicons
💬 A daily focus quote that changes once per day
🎨 Light / dark / system theme and per-widget on/off toggles

Private by design
• Requests only the "storage" permission — no browsing history, no host access.
• 100% offline: your data never leaves your machine. No accounts, no telemetry, no network calls for any core widget.
• Open source with a reproducible build.

Fast
• Renders instantly with no network on the critical path.
• Tiny footprint (~240 KB), built with WXT + React + TypeScript.

Open a new tab and make it yours.
