Speedtab

A local-first browser new-tab dashboard with bookmarks, feeds, and notes.

Speedtab replaces the default browser new tab page with a fast, dense, local-first workspace. Build pages for different contexts, split them into modules, and organize content into tabs. Combine visual bookmarks, RSS/Atom feeds, quick notes, code snippets, link lists, HTML notes, encrypted private notes, and a focused feed reader in one place. Speedtab is designed for people who want structure, speed, and ownership over their data: - no account required - no backend service - no cloud dependency - local storage inside the browser - export/import for portability What you can do with Speedtab: - organize bookmarks into pages, modules, and tabs - upload local preview images for bookmarks - create text, code, link, HTML, and encrypted notes - read RSS/Atom feeds inside the new tab page - track read/unread state for feed items - archive interesting feed items with comments - customize the visual theme and background - move your workspace between browser profiles with portable export/import Speedtab is fully local-first. Application data is stored in IndexedDB inside the browser profile. Feed fetching is handled by the extension itself through its background service worker. Encrypted notes are protected client-side using AES-GCM and PBKDF2-SHA256. Passphrases are never stored by the app. Speedtab is built for users who want a real new-tab workspace instead of a generic start page or a cloud dashboard. -------------------------------------------------- WHAT'S NEW IN VERSION 1.1.0 ADDED FEATURES & IMPROVEMENTS: • Native context menu capture flow for sending selected text or the current page into the local Speedtab inbox. • Asset browser modal with grouped asset views, per-asset details, delete actions, and favicon refresh support. • Global search with a debounced header search box, absolute results layer, locate flow, and in-page highlight cues. • Cleanup preview modal with grouped orphan candidates, optional unused-asset cleanup, preview tiles, and stale favicon refresh. • HTML note image support with asset-backed placeholder tokens and rendered inline images. • Floating note windows that can stay open across pages, featuring drag, resize, focus stacking, and per-note open-state locking. • Bookmark module option to disable hover action buttons. • Bookmark quicklinks mode for compact, favicon-first bookmark grids. • Feed module "Expand" width selector with multiple reading widths and a stacked compact layout for narrow widths. • Feed module local search input in the header for filtering loaded items in the active feed tab. • Feed source lookup flow for discovering RSS/Atom feeds from normal site URLs. • Feed search URL template in global settings. • Built-in modal maximize/restore support. • Dedicated favicon cache tests.
