TabIt - BookMarks
Inimitable BookMarks Manager for Google Chrome by TabIt
As you know, this program synchronises its actions and data with TabIt - NewTab. And in many ways it only meant duplication. Because functionality of the two keeps expanding, it becomes difficult to keep their work syncronous and data perfectly duplicated.
The solution is to delegate most of the responsibilities to just one of them and make the other one dependant. As of this moment, it is 'TabIt - BookMarks' that is responsible for thumbnails preparation and altering bookmarks(creation/editing/sorting/restoring).
TabIt - NewTab will keep storing copies of thumbnails, but only because it speeds up loading of the page.
[UPDATES: 'TabIt - NewTab' v14 & 'TabIt - BookMarks' v6]
- All icons were converted to SVG format.
- Dark Theme was introduced!
- Search for bookmarks is now available.
-
Bookmark creation dialog now starts at the last used folder(and has a corresponding button). New-created(available) bookmarks can now be deleted right from the dialog.
-
Removing bookmarks is now a reversible action. After bookmarks removed, user will be provided with a corresponding notification with a 'RESTORE' button for 5 seconds.
-
'None' thumbnail is now an option.
-
Bookmarks tree design was once more revisited and made the way it was supposed to be. Hopefully, what could irritate you before, will now give way to convenience.
-
Header of the program page got thinner and better merges with the browser window format.
-
As always, some improvements in code productivity. This time, quite major ones. Among all, better programming practices with ES6-capabilities were applied and the most used JS function was rewritten to be more efficient.
A bug would appear as user changed bookmarks layout. It got in there at the stage of obfuscation. And now it's fixed.
-
The two extensions are now synced in terms of bookmarks editing and thumbnails preparation. Second one, that is installed inherits prepared thumbnails by the first one.
-
Thumbnails are now prepared in the background. So, when a bookmark first appeared on page, its thumbnail is going to be prepared, even if the user leaves the page(closes the tab).
-
Preparation of the thumbnails is now queued-up in one chain, which allows to reduce the ammount of requests to the server.
-
Program was accelerated by HTML & CSS minification, revision of images sizes, and increase in the code productivity.
-
Tab's title reflects opened folder's name, now, in 'TabIt - BookMarks'.
-
'Ghost image', accompanying dragged elements became context-dependant and more informative.
