About Bookmark Startpage
Bookmark Startpage - New Tab Page Replacement
A lightweight Chrome extension that transforms your new tab into a clean, customizable start page powered by your bookmarks. No external services, no accounts, no data collection.
Key Features
Customizable Tabs
Create multiple tabs to organize your bookmarks into separate views. Each tab can display a different folder from your bookmarks. Edit tab names and colors to match your style.
Drag and Drop Organization
Arrange your start page exactly how you want it. Drag items to reorder them within tabs or move them between different tabs. Your layout is automatically saved.
Folder-Based Display
Choose any bookmark folder to power each tab. The extension displays your bookmarks in a clean grid layout with favicons for quick visual recognition.
Powerful Search
Instantly find any bookmark across all tabs with the built-in search. Results update as you type.
Quick Access Favorites
Pin your most-used items to the Quick Access bar at the top for one-click access to your favorite websites.
Lightweight and Fast
Pure vanilla JavaScript with no external dependencies. Minimal resource usage. Loads instantly.
Privacy Focused
All data stays on your device. No cloud services, no tracking, no analytics. Your bookmarks never leave your browser.
Backup and Restore
Export your complete configuration including tabs, layout, and settings. Import on another device or after reinstalling.
How It Works
The extension replaces Chrome's new tab page with a custom interface. It reads your bookmarks directly from the browser using Chrome's bookmarks API. Your configuration including tabs, colors, and layout is stored locally using Chrome's storage API.
When you create a new tab in the extension, you select a bookmark folder to display. The extension builds a grid of bookmarks from that folder. You can create as many tabs as you need to organize different areas of your digital life - work, personal, entertainment, projects.
Getting Started
After installation, open a new tab to see your start page. The initial setup includes one tab displaying your bookmarks toolbar. Click the settings icon to customize. Click the plus button to add more tabs.
