## Description

ResizeIT 2 is a Chrome extension designed to streamline your workspace management by letting you quickly restore one of four preset window sizes and optionally positions. With customizable keyboard shortcuts (Alt or Ctrl + 1/2/3/4 depending on your OS), you can effortlessly switch window layouts tailored to your current tasks.

This extension supports Windows, macOS, and Linux, offering default shortcuts that make multitasking seamless. You can also configure a preferred window preset to be applied automatically at startup or for all new browser windows. ResizeIT 2 is a modern rewrite of the popular ResizeIT add-on originally created by Glenn Hallin, enhancing functionality and cross-platform compatibility.
