Description

Problem/Use Case

A user requested the option to have a row of shortcuts of to pages. The users can be given the ability to add links to pages in the settings.

Proposed Solution

  • No shortcut by default.
  • The settings can have a shortcuts tab.
  • There users can add links.
  • These pages will be available below the timer as shortcuts like the default browser new tabs have below the search bar.

Alternative Solutions

Feel free to try any other way to implement this.
