## Description

**Window Resizer** is a powerful and user-friendly Chrome extension designed to help you quickly resize and reposition your browser windows across multiple monitors. With its intuitive toolbar popup, you can select from predefined or custom window sizes and alignments, all displayed visually for easy access. Customize each dimension using percent-based top, left, right, and bottom positioning, ensuring your workspace fits your exact needs.

This extension supports multi-monitor detection, allowing you to choose which monitor serves as the reference for window alignment. It also features configurable keyboard shortcuts for six popular layouts, enabling quick adjustments without opening the popup. Each layout item can be dragged to reorder or removed, and new dimensions can be added to tailor your experience. Additionally, Window Resizer includes a startup custom window sizing feature, automatically adjusting your active window upon loading for maximum productivity. The use of a non-persistent background script ensures the extension remains idle when inactive, optimizing performance.
