In plain words

Workona is a Chrome extension designed to organize browser-based work. It helps users manage tasks and streamline their workflow by providing workspace organization tools built specifically for the browser environment. The product addresses the gap between how people work online and the browser's original design, offering task management and productivity features for professionals who spend their workday in Chrome.

Workona is a better way to work in Chrome We all work in the browser, but it was never built for work. We’re proud to be taking Workona out of beta this week to address the problem and we hope you enjoy the product!

Organize your tabs into a dedicated space for each project.

With tabs organized by project, you can focus on one thing at a time & effortlessly switch contexts. Spaces help you organize the tabs you need for each project. Only your current space tabs are visible; the rest are a click away. Every tab in a space is autosaved, so it’s easy to pick up where you left off. In case of a browser crash or other disaster, restore your tabs to get back on track. Sync tabs between computers to stay up to date. No matter how many devices you use or where they are, your work is ready to go. Browsers are memory hogs, so we added tab suspension to keep your computer running smoothly. Tabs load blazing fast with no effort on your end. You can use the search shortcut…from workona.com

    Hi all, founder @ Retool here. We initially launched Retool on HN five years ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14515494. The feedback was extraordinarily helpful then (e.g. we launched source control, on-prem, etc. based on HN comments), and we’re grateful for all of it. Today, we’re excited to get HN’s thoughts on one of our new products: Retool Mobile. It lets you build and deploy mobile apps in minutes, not days. The idea is there is a large class of line-of-business mobile apps, and the process of getting a simple form + button on a mobile device, in a native app,…
