Sync Tab Groups

★ The project is no more maintained ★

Although I used it a lot, I feel less and less need for such an advanced way to manage my tabs. Aside from my full-time job, I have not much time left to put in this project.

Even, if this project ends, I thank all of you that used the extension or helped me to make this extension so great.

The project remains:
- Available: you continue to use it
- Open-source: you are free to fork it or reuse the code

Alternatives:
- Firefox: [Simple Tab Groups](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/simple-tab-groups/)
- Actively maintained and with more features
- But no more pinned tabs inside groups and the double window to manage the tabs
- Chrome: nothing I am aware of

If you are curious about the experience of developing an open-source extension, you will enjoy [the article about Sync Tab Groups](https://medium.com/@Morikko/the-story-of-sync-tab-groups-the-web-extension-for-managing-your-tabs-d40ebb1079ec).

--------

Sync Tab Groups is an easy way to manage all your tabs. You organize them depending on a topic by group. Groups can be closed and reopened without caring about your session. Moreover, you can easily search, active, move, save and remove your groups and tabs.

Check the website (https://morikko.github.io/synctabgroups/) for more information (video, explanations, guides...)

★ WHAT IS A GROUP ?
A group has a name and contains many tabs related. It is either displayed in a window. Or closed, and waiting the next time you will use it. You can switch from one to another in your current window or in another window.

★ WHY YOUR BROWSING IS BETTER ?
With your groups, you won't care about stopping a task and focusing on another one. With the possibility to search and activate tabs and groups, you won't lose time to retrieve them.

★ HOW TO USE THEM ?
A popup is usable from anywhere in your browser. It shows your groups and let you do the actions with just few clicks. More than just activating tabs, you can move and close them.
