TST Colored Tabs Firefox

TST Colored Tabs

Colorize each tab in Tree Style Tab sidebar based on domain.

Features & Capabilities

TST Colored Tabs is a Chrome extension designed to improve your tab navigation experience by adding distinct colors to each tab in the Tree Style Tab sidebar based on their domains. This means all tabs from the same website share the same background color, making it simpler and quicker to identify and switch between related tabs.

To use TST Colored Tabs, you must have the Tree Style Tab extension installed first. After installing TST Colored Tabs, simply restart the Tree Style Tab sidebar or your browser to activate the colorization feature. This extension is inspired by the ColorfulTabs addon but uniquely supports Tree Style Tab to enhance your browsing workflow efficiently.

User Reviews

Users appreciate that the add‑on colorizes tabs and improves visual grouping and that it generally works for many. Repeated complaints are overly bright/low‑contrast colors on dark themes, reliability/platform issues (crashes or not working on some systems), and missing per‑domain/selective coloring controls.
Pros
  • Effectively colorizes tabs and helps visually distinguish tab trees/groups.
  • Multiple users report it works well and meets their needs.
  • Appealing, colorful visuals that users describe as cute; offers some color customization.
Cons
  • Colors are often too bright with poor contrast on dark modes; tab text can become unreadable — users want brightness/contrast controls.
  • Stability and compatibility problems: several users report the add‑on doesn’t work, crashes, or requires restarting the browser; some report it fails on Linux/CentOS.
  • Limited control over coloring: lacks reliable per‑domain or selective coloring and options like inheriting parent/tree colors; users request finer control.
