Inspired by /r/startpages—the idea is to have a homepage for your browser that is functional and sexy.
To go to a site, enter the corresponding key. To view the available sites and their keys, press enter
. If your input doesn't match any of the commands, a generic Google search will be triggered. For example:
- Entering
r
would redirect you to www.reddit.com. - Entering
t
would redirect you to twitter.com. - Entering
cats
would search Google for cats.
You can search any of the sites by typing a colon after the site's key, followed by your search query. For example:
- Entering
g:tilde
would search GitHub for tilde. - Entering
s:radiohead
would search SoundCloud for radiohead.
You can go to a specific location on a site by typing a forward slash after the site's key, followed by the location on the site you'd like to be redirected to. For example:
- Entering
r/r/startpages
would redirect you to www.reddit.com/r/startpages - Entering
h/popular
would redirect you to hypem.com/popular.
If you enter in a full domain or URL, you will be redirected to said domain or URL. For example:
- Entering
stallman.org
would redirect you to stallman.org. - Entering
https://smile.amazon.com
would redirect you to smile.amazon.com.
There's a slew of options that you can configure. Just open up the index.html
file and read through them!
Feel free to use this and modify it however you like.
