Summary
Hearth is a minimal and clean homepage for your browser, inspired by the default Chrome homepage. That's it. It doesn't have additional bells and whistles like calendar integration, nor will it ever.
Hearth shows you your homepage by overriding the newtab page, and showing you your custom homepage from Hearth instead of the default newtab page.
Contrary to Chrome's default newtab page, Hearth supports a nearly unlimited number of links, through the use of an expanding area for icons, as well as folders to organize your homepage.
The icon for a site is automatically selected to be the favicon for that website, making the organizational process much more hassle-free.
Additionally, Hearth has an (optional) clock at the top, which helps fill empty space while still remaining clean.
Icons used in this project were made by Freepik (https://www.flaticon.com/authors/freepik) available on Flaticon (https://www.flaticon.com/) Default background by Albulena Panduri.
