Before you
make yourself at home.
- What is Whiskrs?
- Whiskrs is a local-first Chrome extension for developer bookmarks, tab sessions and project references. It replaces the new-tab page with a workspace for saved links.
- Do I need an account?
- No. Core bookmarks, collections, Next and project organization work without a Whiskrs account. Your library stays in the current browser profile.
- Does Whiskrs sync between devices?
- No automatic cloud sync is included in v1. Export a JSON backup to keep another copy or transfer a library to a different browser.
- Can I connect a GitHub repository?
- Repository pulse reads public pull requests, assigned issues and default-branch CI on request. Public activity works without sign-in; private repositories are not supported in v1.
- How do I back up my library?
- Export a JSON backup from Whiskrs and keep the file somewhere safe. You can import it into another browser profile; there is no automatic cloud backup in v1.
- What is coming in Whiskrs 1.1.0?
- The upcoming update adds the Your Space dashboard, local PDF and image files, snippets, reading tools, optional history archiving, an encrypted vault, manual encrypted folder backups and a hands-on workspace tutorial. Version 1.0.0 is currently published; these additions are being prepared for Chrome review.
- How do I install Whiskrs?
- Install Whiskrs from its official Chrome Web Store listing, then open a new tab to begin the welcome tour.
