ideal browser configuration
this web app is best used when paired with a browser (or browser extension) that allows you to:
- open a custom URL when opening a new tab
- focus the page content when opening a new tab
my personal recommendation is to use vivaldi, a chrome based browser that offers a setting both of these things.
specific vivaldi settings
- General -> Startup -> Homepage -> Select "Specific Page" and set it to https://fastab.xyz
- Tabs -> New Tab Page -> Select "Homepage" if you set the previous setting, or the custom URL option set to https://fastab.xyz
- Tabs -> Tab Handling -> Select "Focus Page Content on New Tab"
with those settings, you should be able to open a new tab with CTRL
+ T
(or whatever bind you configured in vivaldi) and immediately press SPACE
to search, or a chord you configured to open
a bookmark in a bookmark set widget.
