STARLING New Tab

Every site you care about is a planet. This fork is a Chrome / Edge New Tab extension — same solar system, meant to be your homepage.

Nothing leaves the browser. No account.

Live demo

https://ethaenall.github.io/starling/

Open that URL from any machine, including a phone. Tap a world to inspect it, tap again to visit, hold to customize. Your planets stay in that browser (localStorage). This is the website build, not the Chrome new-tab override.

Install (unpacked)

1. npm install
2. npm run build
3. Chrome → chrome://extensions → Developer mode → Load unpacked
4. Pick the dist/ folder

Every new tab should open STARLING.

Use it as your homepage

Chrome has no separate “homepage extension” slot. Set:

• On startup → Open the New Tab page
• Appearance → Show home button → set homepage to chrome://newtab

Home and New Tab both become your sky.

Dev

npm run dev

Still a normal site at localhost. Load dist/ when you want the real new-tab behavior (click a planet → this tab goes there).
