Features

Before diving deep into customizations, it is better to know what this start page can do:

  • Filter links by typing in the prompt
    • Quickly filter links by typing in the prompt. Hitting Enter will open all filtered links at once
    • If nothing filtered, the text in prompt will use the default search engine for searching your input
    • Force search using CTRL + ENTER without launching filtered links
  • Launch websites directly from the prompt. Just type the URL (ie. github.com)
