Nice! Reminds me of the macOS menubar app @AndreyAzimov made: https://www.producthunt.com/post...
Handy in case you don't use Google Chrome or prefer to use another New Tab extension.

@andreyazimov @marckohlbrugge Big fan of that one! Love that it's paid and will therefore support the maker's income!
The tab should be updated only once while opening. That would be enough. Or controlled updates to the DOM would be great! Anything that doesnt take up 30% CPU would be neat!
Pros:Decent looking and makes me serious
Cons:The CPU usage is very very high for an empty tab mainly because there are so many DOM updates happening!

After your review, I checked CPU usage on multiple systems. I'm sure that it doesn't use 30% of your CPU. At max 20% maybe.
Check this snapshot if you don't believe me -

I just put together a new release which blocks the DOM updating if the tab is out of focus. So, basically this issue invalid now
Each time I open a new tab, it reminds me how fast the time is moving! Definitely motivates me to be more productive!
Pros:Fast. Neat and Motivating
Cons:No option to set fixed background? I personally find some gradients too colourful

Thanks for the feedback 🙏
I'll roll out a new release with an option to set fixed background 😍

Hey PH,
I'm so excited to ship Year Progress 🚀 It's my first Chrome Extension launch on chrome store 😇
I ♥ Productivity tools. They help you get things done. I made this chrome extension to help me get things done faster 💪 This product was completely inspired by Year Progress Twitter(https://twitter.com/year_progress) ⏳ When I see any of these tweets I get motivated. That's when I got this idea.
I want to improve this product. For that, I need your feedback 💬 So let me know how can I improve Year Progress even if it's the smallest suggestion 🙏
The complete code is open sourced - https://github.com/mubaris/year_... ✌ If you find any bug, be sure to send a PR 🐛
