I built the Tab Organizer Chrome Extension to solve a simple but annoying problem — having too many tabs open and losing track of them.
At first, I started with a basic version that could only list open tabs. Then I improved it step by step by adding grouping based on domains, which made it much easier to see how many tabs were open for each website.
After that, I added more useful features like:
Closing all tabs of a specific site with one click
Pinning and unpinning tabs quickly
Highlighting favorite websites
One of the biggest challenges was handling different types of tab URLs and making sure the extension didn’t break. I also worked on improving the UI so it looks clean and easy to use.
Finally, I tested the extension with real users — 2 people have practically used my project, and I have also attached their pictures as proof of real usage. This helped me confirm that the extension works properly in real-world scenarios.
In the future, I plan to:
Add a search feature for tabs
Allow custom favorite sites
Improve performance and UI even more
