Description
A geeky new tab page with smart search, bangs, and quick links for easy access and navigation. Every new tab, ready the instant it opens. No mouse, no clicking a search box — just start typing and hit Enter. Ask a Geek turns Chrome's new tab into a keyboard-first launcher built for developers and power users. SEARCH AT SPEED - Type anywhere — the box catches your keystrokes automatically ("/" focuses it too) - Web searches use YOUR default search engine, via Chrome's built-in Search API — the extension never changes or overrides your search settings - Site search for developers: GitHub, Stack Overflow, MDN, YouTube — switch with Alt/Option+1-5 - Bangs for one-shot site searches: !gh flexbox gap, !so segfault, !mdn array, !yt - Smart URL detection: github.com, localhost:3000, or 192.168.1.1:8080 navigate directly; vue.js or package.json searches instead — a real-TLD allowlist keeps it honest QUICK ACCESS + TODOS - Editable shortcuts, reorder by drag or keyboard (Alt+arrows), with undo toasts - Lightweight todo panel with check-off, undo, and clear-done - Everything persists locally and syncs live across open tabs MAKE IT YOURS - Display name, 12/24h clock, accent color with automatic contrast safety, section toggles - Dark GitHub-inspired terminal theme PRIVATE BY DESIGN Favicons come straight from Chrome's local cache — zero network requests. No tracking, no analytics, no accounts, no build dependencies. Everything stays on your machine. Accessible throughout: screen-reader announcements, focus management, reduced-motion support. Install it, open a new tab, and press ? to see every keyboard shortcut.
