Description

An Experimental Browser UI that runs in Google Chrome. This App is mostly an experiment to think about web browser UIs in a bit of a different way. Key Features: • A tree structure for managing your tabs (that you can choose to hide) (like tree style tabs / treetabs for firefox). • No distinction between bookmarks and tabs. • Ability to rename tabs. • Ability to "pin" tabs to prevent accidentally navigating away / closing. • Not all tabs need to be loaded at once (they are loaded when you want them to be, and marked with a tick. You can also unload tabs to free up memory without fully closing them). • Ability to clour-code tabs. • Completely Open Source - https://github.com/samlanning/leaf-browser

Solid concept & compelling UI design. I was excited to use this extension for organizing my online reading - alas, the lack of any adblocking features made this less-than-ideal. I didn't use Leaf for more than 5 minutes as a result. Autocomplete in the URL bar is necessary as well.

The auto complete seems to put https:// into the command line rather than http: so many websites do not appear and a 'site not found' message appears.

It was simply okay... I love the fact that people are at least trying to build other browsers for chromebooks. I wish more popular sites would create real apps for chromebooks too!
