## Description

<strong>Open tabs in a native split view right in your browser</strong>

The extension has 3 layouts: 2 frames horizontal, 3 frames horizontal and 2 frames vertical. You can resize each frames.

And even if it is not recommended, you can in fact mix and match those layouts by opening in one of the frames a tab where the extension is already running.

<strong>Important security caveat</strong>

For this extension to work, it has to lower the security of your browser by allowing any website to be embedded in iframes.
This is done by modifying headers on the fly. To be as secure as possible, this is only the case when the extension has some Split views open.
