PinTabs: Project-based tab management

• 📌 A browser extension that helps you manage tabs from the perspective of projects (or workspaces).

• Introduction

• When using a browser, I am often troubled by the following issues:
  • Unable to find a specific document for a project. Since I am usually working on multiple projects concurrently, there are many related documents, and this problem often occurs (mainly the reason why I wanted to develop this plugin). Of course, bookmarks can be used for management as well, but bookmarking is exceptionally cumbersome. After trying it out, I gave up because bookmarks lacked some functions that I desired.
  • Tabs are always in chaos with no suitable method of management. Grouping is a good way to organize them; however, if accidentally closing the browser without saving tabs in groups will result in losing current project documents. Moreover, grouping involves high costs such as manual dragging and naming which is too troublesome.
• Based on these two pain points mentioned above, I developed a tab management tool based on project dimensions called 📌 PinTabs.
• Its design concept resembles Arc Browser's Space & Project concepts. During the development of this plugin, I found similarities between Arc Browser's approach and the problems my plugin aims to solve. Therefore, midway through developing the plugin, I paused its development and tried switching to Arc Browser. However, encountering numerous bugs and performance issues ultimately led me to abandon using Arc Browser and instead focus on developing my own convenient project document management plugin.
