Minimal New Page

A long time ago, back when I was a young developer, happily using Google Chrome as my daily driver, I spent a few hours messing around with Chrome extensions and coded myself an extremely simple extension that replaced the new tab with a minimal clock.

That extension has been sitting there since 2017, used by hundreds of people, with zero maintenance.

But Google being Google I now had to spend a moment figuring out how to update it in order to make it work with Manifest V3. The app is now in Google’s hands, I have zero clue how the process works and no idea how long is gonna take for the new version to show up on the Chrome Web Store. But I did my part. You’re welcome Rodrigo.

This post also doubles as the privacy page for the extension. The extension is literally 1 HTML file, 1 single JS function to make the clock work and a few lines of CSS to style the page. That’s it. The app collects no data, has no options, and there’s no paid version. If you have questions hit me up via email.
