Sidebar Tabs

Emulate tabs in sidebar and display tabs vertically. In addition, group tabs and collapse / expand them.

Sidebar Tabs is a Chrome extension that transforms your browsing experience by displaying tabs vertically in a convenient sidebar. This layout allows for better visibility and organization of your open tabs.

Key features include the ability to group selected tabs for organized browsing. You can collapse or expand groups to manage tab clusters efficiently. The extension supports intuitive actions like shift-click or ctrl-click to select multiple tabs, which can then be dragged or grouped via context menu options. Additionally, you can customize group labels and easily ungroup tabs as needed. To enhance icon colors to match your browser theme, enabling an experimental browser setting is recommended. Explore more or contribute to the project via the official GitHub repository linked in the extension details.
