Search Bookmarks, History and Tabs Extension

This extension does not collect any data, nor does it make any external requests.

It supports two different search approaches or a hybrid between both:

- Fuzzy search (approximate string matching)
- Precise search (exact matching)

With this extension you can also **tag your bookmarks** including auto completions. The tags are considered when searching and can be used for navigation. It also supports searching for and navigating to your open tabs and history. Lastly, the extension allows you to configure \"search engines\", which will forward you to arbitrary search engines with the search term as the search query (helpful as a fallback).

In general, the extension is very customizable and has a dark / light theme that is selected based on your system settings.

Vladislav Nalitov (ID: 0000006c79041ca3) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 09/14/2021 I didn’t need search queries from google and others. Only bookmarks and tabs. I was tormented with the code until I came up. Maybe someone will come in handy. Write all code in English! { bookmarks: { enabled: true, }, history: { daysAgo: 7, ignoreList: 'http://localhost', 'http://127.0.0.1', , maxItems: 1024, }, score: { tabBaseScore: 70, }, search: { approach: 'precise', }, searchEngines: { choices: { name: 'Google', urlPrefix: 'https://www.google.com/search?q=', }, { name: 'dict.cc', urlPrefix: 'https://www.dict.cc/?s=', }, , }, tabs: { enabled: true, }, }
