Open websites in Chrome's side panel with built-in translation. Bookmark, browse, and translate text inline. Sidebar Browser & Translate Minimalist turns Chrome's side panel into a persistent mini-browser. Open your favorite web apps side-by-side with what you're reading, switch between them without losing state, and translate any text on the fly — all without leaving your current tab. WHY YOU NEED THIS EXTENSION: ✓ Browse in the Sidebar — Open any website (Telegram, ChatGPT, Notion, dictionaries, docs) inside Chrome's side panel. Keep it visible while you work in the main tab. ✓ Persistent Bookmarks — Pin your favorite sites. Each bookmark keeps its own state, so switching between them doesn't reload the page. Telegram keeps your chat, Google keeps your search, your notes stay where you left them. ✓ Built-in Translator — Select any text on any webpage and see the translation instantly in the sidebar. Double-click a word for quick lookup with phonetic transcription. Translate your own notes too. ✓ Reorder by Drag — Drag and drop bookmarks to rearrange them however you like. Your layout, your way. ✓ Always Starts at Home — Open the sidebar and land on a clean translate workspace.
