## Description

Tidy Tabs is a browser extension that keeps your tabs tidy.

It allows you to automatically sort tabs based on their domain as follows:

- It compares components (tld, top-level domain, subdomain, subsubdomain, etc.) lexicographically.
  (e.g. com is smaller than org, example1 is smaller than example2)

- It compares hostnames reverse lexicographically.
  (e.g. <a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/3d75efd3c6ca6d18ff13e854864583ea045a43af68957ad13b7d1809d461dee5/http%3A//example1.com" rel="nofollow">example1.com</a> is smaller than <a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/b455f030500126658c7e520a376e24c9c160494537d24e4fcceb7dc93d7870ea/http%3A//example2.org" rel="nofollow">example2.org</a> because com is smaller than org)

- If one hostname contains another, the shorter one is smaller.
  (e.g. <a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/b455f030500126658c7e520a376e24c9c160494537d24e4fcceb7dc93d7870ea/http%3A//example2.org" rel="nofollow">example2.org</a> is smaller than <a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/1f7304e26a784eeb04c51e0a2198ee918be6e3ab034e4f08aceb3028bbbe0d3e/http%3A//www.example2.org" rel="nofollow">www.example2.org</a> because <a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/b455f030500126658c7e520a376e24c9c160494537d24e4fcceb7dc93d7870ea/http%3A//example2.org" rel="nofollow">example2.org</a> is shorter than <a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/1f7304e26a784eeb04c51e0a2198ee918be6e3ab034e4f08aceb3028bbbe0d3e/http%3A//www.example2.org" rel="nofollow">www.example2.org</a>)
