some suggestion

Open chongkaechin opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

Hello, my English is poor, so this text was translated using google translate. Please forgive me. I am a user of this plugin, thank you very much for your team for making this plugin. I have a few suggestions I hope your team can consider. I don’t know about web-related programming, and I almost only use C++, so if my suggestion is difficult to implement, then your team can ignore him. Of course, if you are willing to briefly explain the principles and reasons for infeasibility for me, I will be very thank.

(1) It seems that there is no way to add a single tab to your sidebar. I think this feature will make this plugin more attractive. (2) When adding a single tab page, if you can choose which existing group to put in or create a new group, I think it is also good. (3) As far as I know, chrome already has the function of group tabs. Is it possible to put a group tab directly into your sidebar? (4) Can you customize the title and color of the group? (5) I think that if you can copy a tab to another group and drag it directly to another group, it is a more intuitive way to make this plug-in.

Finally, thank you for your willingness to take a look at my suggestions, I hope this plugin can do better and better!

Hi, thanks for your feedback!

1-2. This behavior is intended. The extension was designed as a temporary storage for tabs, not permanent. But since you're not the first person proposing this, I think I can open an issue for this to work on. UPD: I've just checked and found an issue we already worked on for some time. Keep tracking on #63 3-4. This feature was proposed in issue #62 and it seems that Google finally added API to manage groups, so it should be easy to implement. You can track progress on issue #62 5. Yeah, this feature may be quite useful, although it requires a lot of code refactoring. But yeah, sure, why not

P.S. Unfortunately, I have so little time to work on this project, so it can take a lot of time to get done

You may have meant #62 :)

Thank you for the great plugin! I'd like to ask some questions if it's convenient for you. If I want to contribute some code to your project, Which technology stacks are necessary? The technology stack I have contacted more is Java.

Hi, the current stack for this extension is pure HTML/CSS/JS. Though there are plans to migrate to ReactJS/TypeScript I do not think I will have time for this in the near future. So you're free to go with the current stack)
