This is the repository for zasnut, an open-source tab suspend extension for web browsers.
The Kickstarter may be dead, but the extension was completed anyways.
When this extension is installed, tabs will automatically unload around 2 minutes after being de-selected.
- Pico weight - extremely light, ~20 lines of code.
- Easy to modify
- Easy to audit - no minification, no obfuscation, no bullshit.
- Manifest V3 - this requires Chrome 88 or higher, but is reasonably future proof.
- Minimal permissions - by design, can not access your browsing history or other data.
- Clone this project
- In Chrome | Extensions, enable Developer Mode.
- Click "load unpacked", choose the project folder.
BSD
This was designed to be a drop-in library for other extensions - if you are interested in bundling zasnut with your extension, please pay special attention to the 3rd clause of the BSD license.
Other licenses may be granted on request.
Zasnut is available on the Chrome Web Store for "Google Trusted Testers" only, for their convenience.
