HomePage-Lite

HomePage Lite

HomePage Lite is a lightweight, high-performance browser extension that replaces your default new tab page with a custom, beautifully integrated web dashboard via an iframe. It fully supports both Google Chrome (Manifest V3) and Mozilla Firefox (Manifest V2).

✨ Key Features

• Custom New Tab Page: Seamlessly loads online-homepage-pro.vercel.app as your default new tab.
• Live Metadata Syncing: Injects a content script to dynamically sync the live <title> and favicon from your dashboard to the browser tab every second (perfect for Single Page Applications).
• Cross-Browser Sidebar Panel: Access your dashboard directly from the side of your screen using Chrome’s sidePanel API or Firefox’s sidebarAction.
• Smart Welcome Banner: Displays a non-intrusive welcome banner on the new tab and sidebar that auto-hides after the first 60 seconds of launching the browser.
• Modern Popup UI: A sleek, gradient-styled popup menu with version info, live sync status, and a quick-launch sidebar button.
• Lifecycle Hooks: Automatically opens the GitHub repository on a fresh install and redirects for feedback upon uninstallation.
