Short description
Transform your homepage into a highly customisable page that REALLY feels like home. A minimal dashboard replacing the "New Tab" page which syncs with your bookmarks.
Full summary

Home should feel like home.

Welcome home is a highly customisable "New Tab" replacement, which houses your notes, todos, weather, time and more. Currently, not in full release, we're working hard to improve Welcome Home with the help of your feedback.

We love feedback, a lot. We'd adore a review to help us move in the correct direction.

UPDATE NOTES:

  • Fixed issue where time didn't update
  • Fixed issue where time didn't format correctly
  • Added ability to create new todo items on enter key, instead of pressing "add" (Thanks to @JorgeEnriquez35 for that suggestion)

The full usage guide is available at http://romac.me/mdash

First time

Once the extension is installed, just open a new window to activate it. You’ll now see an empty dashboard. This is needed in order to enable to extension to create a special folder named [Dashboard] in the Other Bookmarks folder.

Add a section

To add a section to the dashboard, open the Bookmarks Manager and browse to /Other Bookmarks/[Dashboard]/ Each section is represented by a folder. As it is currently not possible to attach metadata to a folder, it’s name will be used to determine in which columns the section should appear. Folders prefixed with the + character will be displayed on the left column, ones prefixed with a - will show on the right column.

Add a bookmark while browsing the Web

Browse any website you would like to add to the dashboard and click the star at the right of the address bar, then choose one of the previously created folders.
