About Pondie Tab - Cozy Frog Companion
Meet Pondie Tab aka TabMaka, an adorable cozy companion that lives on your new-tab page. Designed as a cute kawaii frog loaf, it warmly greets you every time you open a new tab.
What you get:
- An interactive kawaii frog companion with real-time cursor-following eye tracking, expressive blinking, and breathing animations
- Drag and drop your companion anywhere on the screen, or poke it for cute playful bounce reactions
- Ambient color palette switcher to easily set your preferred soothing background tone
- Minimalist clock toggle (12-hour, 24-hour, or hidden) and editable greeting
- A clean, calm, and distraction-free new-tab experience
Built for people who want a little delight without the bloat:
- 100% local. No analytics, no telemetry, no network requests, no account required.
- The only permission requested is storage, used solely to remember your frog's position, custom greeting, background color, and clock preferences.
- Lightweight and lightning fast. Built with vanilla TypeScript and HTML5 Canvas, no heavy frameworks, loads instantly.
- Respects system reduced-motion settings and pauses animation when the tab is inactive, costing ~0% CPU.
