Extension to automate the grouping of Chrome tabs based on URL keys
Jamesloon's Chrome Auto Tab Grouping Extension
This extension uses the URL to group tabs by key words in the URL. For example, https://google.com would yield a Group Name of \"google\". Likewise, https://mail.google.com would yield a Group Name of \"mail.google\".
For example, if the user wanted to group everything google, they would add/modify a Group Name of \"google\" but if the user only wanted to group Gmail tabs and nothing else, they would add the URL key of \"mail.google\".
This allows the user to be specific in which sub-sections of a site they wish to group together.
This extension also allows for the automatic grouping of Service-Now tabs/sub-domains. For example, https://test.service-now.com would (if enabled) automatically create a new tab group named \"test.service-now\". This is useful for Service-Now developers that work across multiple production/testing environments and windows.
