stickytab is a newtab page designed for increased productivity. you can save stickies to your newtab page (stored locally in browser storage).

Ship #1 Pending review

I made a fully working NewTab page! I call it Stickytab because of my favorite part: you can stick sticky notes on the new tab page! The sticky notes are saved locally to your browser, which means that you can save your sticky notes and see them later, even after you close the page. You can also save sites (kind of like browser bookmarks, but with easier access) to the new tab page, also saved locally to your browser. Figuring out how to access and use local browser storage was the hardest part for me, because it is something I have not done before in JavaScript. It definitely took a lot of W3Schools articles!

Finished the code for the site saving feature. Now, favorite sites can be saved (locally on your browser) and accessed anytime.
The sticky manager is finished for now. I also completed a settings page which can store preferences for time formats and search engines.
Time to decide between adding any finishing touches, or shipping this completed project!

Completed core code for stickies and updated README

I used a different code editor for the stickies (so that I could compile all the graphics into a single HTML file) and I couldn’t figure out how to add Hackatime to it. Hopefully it’ll be fine..?

I also updated the README with, well, more detailed instructions. The README is still a little vague, so I should add to it later.

Next I’ll be adding to the other empty spaces of the newtab page. I’m planning for a calculator and a list of saved shorctuts for web addresses, but most of the time, this is what happens when I plan my coding:

  1. I plan things
  2. I plan some more
  3. I don’t follow my plans

Can’t think of anything else for this devlog. Back to coding!

Added basic search engine capabilities to Stickytab

In addition to this, there’s an iframe that’s ready for a file containing the code for the best part of this project: the stickies!! I guess it’s time to start working on those sticky notes before I move on to the other blank parts of the page.
