Products that do what Replace Chrome new tab with a blank WYSIWYG editor for taking notes does
minimalistab is an extension for Chrome that replaces the default "New tab" page with a blank WYSIWYG editor for taking notes. Sometimes I need a blank screen to stare at, especially when context switching between tasks; so I made this Chrome extension with basic note taking capabilities. I kept the code as simple as possible, formatted for developers with dyslexia. Let me know your opinions. I hope you find it useful. Feel free to personalize and hack your own copy. Feedback very welcome. DEMO: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hakaneskici/minimalistab/r... Install…

I wanted to see how far I could go building a notes app using only what modern browsers already provide – no frameworks, no storage APIs, no build step. What it does: Single HTML file, no deps, 111 loc Notes live in the URL hash (shareable links!) Auto-compressed with CompressionStream Plain-text editor (contenteditable) History support Page title from first # heading Respects light/dark mode No storage, cookies, or tracking The entire app is the page source. https://textarea.my/

Hello HN! Flowtide is a project I have been working on for about 2 months now. It is a customizable new tab page for Firefox or Chrome. By default, it is configured to have a minimal amount of features, but it can be configured to include a clock, to-do list, or even soundscapes. Install: https://flowtide.app/ GitHub: https://github.com/thingbomb/flowtide
