WindoM redefines the new tab experience. Instead of an empty page, every new tab opens to a thoughtfully designed personal dashboard - all the essentials in one place, built for focus and your daily flow.

Built around a clean glassmorphism aesthetic, WindoM feels as good as it looks - smooth, minimal, and always out of the way when you need it to be.

At a glance, you see the time, the weather outside, your upcoming calendar events, what is playing on Spotify, and your tasks for the day. Everything you actually care about, nothing you do not.

When it is time to get things done, Focus Mode strips the dashboard to its core - a full-screen countdown timer with no distractions. A better new tab, built for focus.

Backgrounds shift with your mood - pull stunning imagery from Unsplash or bring your own. A new quote greets you each day. The greeting knows your name and the time.

Every detail of WindoM is configurable. Show what matters, hide what does not. Connect Google Calendar and Spotify if you want them, or keep it simple and offline. Your settings, your dashboard.

Start your day with focus & flow. Your space, your way.

FAQ

Common questions

Yes - Spotify uses a Bring Your Own App model. Create a free app at developer.spotify.com/dashboard, add the Redirect URI shown in WindoM's Spotify settings, and paste your Client ID. The whole setup takes about 2 minutes. Your Client Secret is never required or stored - WindoM uses PKCE, the standard secure OAuth flow for public clients.

Yes - almost everything works offline. The clock, todos, quick links, focus timer, quotes, and your settings are all stored locally in your browser. Weather and Unsplash backgrounds require an internet connection. Google Calendar and Spotify naturally require both a connection and an account.

No. An account is entirely optional. Every feature except Google Calendar sync and Spotify works without one. If you do create an account, it's only used to sync your settings across devices and to connect third-party integrations.

WindoM is built to be fast. It is a static React app with no background scripts running while you browse. The extension only activates when you open a new tab. Weather and Spotify polling happens at most once every 30 seconds and only when the dashboard is open.

Yes. WindoM is a Manifest V3 Chrome extension and works on any Chromium-based browser - Arc, Brave, Microsoft Edge, Opera, and Vivaldi. Firefox is not supported at this time as it uses a different extension API.

Removing the extension deletes all locally stored data (settings, todos, quick links) from your browser automatically. If you have an account, your server-side data (settings sync, OAuth tokens) is kept until you explicitly delete your account from the Account tab in Settings.

Yes. WindoM is fully open source under the MIT license. The backend is a Node.js + Fastify API that can be self-hosted with Docker in minutes. See the Local Setup guide for instructions.
