A focused workspace for every new tab.

Zentaplan is an offline-first Chrome New Tab extension that gives you a focused workspace every time you open a new tab.

Context

A new tab with somewhere to put the day.

Zentaplan combines web shortcuts, daily priority tasks, a simple TODO list, and multi-project kanban flow in one local-first workspace.

What I built

Several focused workflows in one surface.

I built the browser-native workspace around shortcut launch, daily focus, project boards, theme customization, and backup/restore.

Technology

Vanilla browser technologies.

Chrome Extension Manifest V3, HTML, CSS, vanilla JavaScript (ES Modules), IndexedDB with localStorage fallback

  • Web shortcuts with best-effort title and favicon resolution.
  • Up to three active priority tasks.
  • Simple TODO list for overflow items.
  • Multi-project kanban flow with Todo, Doing, and Done columns.
  • Theme customization and JSON backup/restore.
What this demonstrates

Product thinking without a backend.

Designing several related workflows to remain understandable, local-first, and useful offline.
