Extension summary

Super janky, and mostly broken extension that changes your new tab page into a splitscreen view of two customisable web pages.

Because this uses iframe, and explicitly removes x-frame headers, behaviour is very inconsistent, and only really works on some pages.

I CANT USE IT ITS IS BAD
by wyatt brown, 2020-12-02

Needed to record the load time of two pages side-by-side. I used it along with the Screencastify extension and got great results. My only grievance is that I can't toggle it on and off without going into extension settings but other than that it's simple and works well!
