Firstlight — New Tab Dashboard: Widgets, To-Do, Weather

Firstlight replaces your New Tab page with a calm, fast, fully customizable dashboard. Add the widgets you want, drag them anywhere on a 12-column grid, resize, collapse, or lock the layout — and make every new tab a place to start, not a distraction. No account. No backend. No tracking. Everything is stored locally in your browser, with optional Chrome sync to carry your dashboard across devices. WIDGETS Productivity • To-do — quick capture, due dates, sorting and filtering • Notes — a simple scratchpad that's always one tab away • Habits — daily habit tracker with streaks and per-habit colors • Pomodoro — focus timer with work/break phases and optional desktop notification • Focus — your one intention for the day, plus a daily quote • Calendar — a local month view that marks days with your tasks and events Info • Search — a fast search bar with suggestions; use your browser's default engine or pick Google, DuckDuckGo, Bing, or Startpage • Clock — 12/24h, multiple styles • Weather — current conditions and forecast via Open-Meteo, by city or your location • Bookmarks — your own links plus an optional "most visited" section; import from Chrome bookmarks • Top sites — most-visited sites and recently closed tabs, one click to restore • RSS — follow any feed, parsed right in the page Google (optional sign-in) • Google Calendar — today's and upcoming events • Gmail — unread inbox at a glance (metadata only — Firstlight never reads message bodies) • Google Tasks — view and check off your task lists • Google apps launcher and Google News headlines MAKE IT YOURS • Style presets: glass, minimal, neumorph, brutalist • Light, dark, or follow your system theme, with paired accent colors that stay legible in both • Photo backgrounds with adjustable blur, or a clean solid canvas • 10 bundled fonts, UI scale, widget color, opacity and blur • Lock the grid when you're done arranging; collapse widgets you don't need right now PRIVATE BY DESIGN • All your data — tasks, notes, habits, layout — lives in chrome.storage on your device • Optional cross-device sync uses Chrome's built-in sync storage; nothing ever touches our servers (we don't have any) • No analytics, no ads, no account • Weather, quotes, photos and search suggestions come from keyless public APIs • Google sign-in is optional and read-only-ish: calendar read-only, Gmail metadata only, Drive metadata only. Sign out anytime; the Google widgets simply switch off. Open your next tab to firstlight.
