## Description

Simple Temporary Containers is a lightweight Firefox extension designed to isolate your tabs into temporary containers. Each container acts as a separate context with its own cookies and website data, preventing tracking and allowing multiple sign-ins simultaneously. These containers start blank and auto-remove once all their tabs are closed, ensuring privacy without clutter.

The extension requires only minimal permissions, uses no major ones, and does not store or send any user data, making it a privacy-friendly solution. It integrates well with other container-related Firefox extensions and offers several convenient methods to create new containers, such as keyboard shortcuts, context menu options, and toolbar icons. For users seeking simple, audit-friendly containerization without feature bloat, Simple Temporary Containers is an ideal tool.
