Hello Product Hunt, I'm a hobbyist programmer with an affinity for tools that simplify routine tasks. I'm a firm believer in subtracting steps, not just rerouting them. With that in mind, I'm excited to introduce my Google Chrome extension: Marble. Like Marbles, tabs are unique on their own but better in groups. Thats why this extension automatically groups your tabs as you go. Tabs are grouped by domain or subdomain depending on your preference. Plus, it intelligently assigns color to these groups based on the website's favicon. (Bear in mind that Google Chrome only allows a choice of 9 tab group colors so the color that is assigned is the closest approximation). I hope you'll find Marble useful. As you might expect, any ratings or reviews on the Chrome Web Store would help the visibility of the extension greatly. Thanks for taking the time to check it out.

💡 Bright idea

Intresting idea, but i think my biggest problems with tabs is that they're not all affiliated with a domain. Right now I've got trello, gmail, notion, product hunt, and then typically I'll have a bunch of miscellanous other ones. Is there any way of grouping besides just domains?

@britt_joiner Thanks for your feedback. I can understand your use-case and I do plan to explore options for more grouping categories beyond the domain. I'm curious, what sort of grouping categories would you be interested in having?

@britt_joiner @myster_violets I'd second Brittany's suggestion! Could you make the grouping customizable? I'd like to group based on a project / task I'm working on.

I have installed this extension on brave browser and it works exactly the same. It's not a world-changing experience but it does increase my productivity a little bit by grouping all of the different tabs based on the website they belong to.

@paulo_torpes Chrome Extensions are compatible with Brave.

@paulo_torpes Brave, Chrome, Edge, Opera, and Vivaldi, all use the same Chromium base for their browsers so chrome extensions work on all of them.

was hoping for the smart colors but didn't see them. It grouped the tabs based on domain but for me who opens a lot of tabs, losing real estate for the name of the group is considerable. maybe I was looking for something like what opera browser does.

@savvyblunt Thanks for the feedback. Google Chrome offers a choice of 9 basic colours for tab groups so the extensions will try to match (as closely as possible) the favicon of the first tab in the group with one of the tab group colours. This isn't perfect yet though, do you mind telling me what you were seeing and for which sites?

@myster_violets So I opened a new Chrome browser and installed your extension then I opened YouTube, Facebook, Reddit, GitHub, and my gmail, with another Google search tab. I didn't see any colors. but the Gmail tab and the Google search tab got grouped together and there was a "Google" text on the left of that group. I will try it on my laptop again cause maybe my PC Chrome is already tweaked a lot and it's interfering with your extension.

@savvyblunt Thanks for the response. Presumably the group you're referring to was coloured in gray? If so, this might be a result of the extension trying to interpret the multi-coloured favicon from Google and falling back to gray after finding no dominant color. If you try opening a few tabs where the icon has a more definitive colour eg. Youtube or Facebook, you should see the smart colors in action. Let me know if that works for you.

@myster_violets Yeah the group coloring worked for facebook (blue) and youtube and reddit (both red). but I got gray for github, spotify, amazon. its a nice extension but as others said, customized grouping like opera browser is much more useful.

Hey Myster. i downloaded it. I actually really like it. We're also currently browser-extension first and its kind of a novel medium. For me it adds some color and fun to the tab experience, less just productivity. I can quickly see where my twitter is (i just accumulate tabs) and now there it is tada! I bought you a coffee at BuyMeACoffee.com for the utility.

I find this tool very interesting because my Chrome browser usually opens 40-50 tabs, and finding the tab I need is often very difficult. Now, this Chrome extension can help me find the right tab. I am currently using this extension, and I will share an extended review after one month of using this tool.

@pauldhaliwal I'm just like you, tabs everywhere! And the Chrome tab grouping feature is a _very_ manual process. Let me know if you have any initial feedback or suggestions.
