Comment on Show HN: Pad – personal access dashboard for keeping tabs on multiple sitesparent

Comments

Thanks for this amazing feedback and trying it out!

Yes, Pads are like the group or tab, and sites the individual asset.

Right now when you hit new pad, it just fires a window prompt which may get blocked lol - need to swap this out for in-app dialog windows, I will do this ASAP so others don't get blocked as well, thank you.

(Edit: oh, you mean you thought to add a new site it was "new pad", got it - maybe I can make this more clear, again thank you for such great feedback here)

I edited my description comment a bit, but yes you are basically correct, a visual bookmarks manager that can be utilized cross-browser and device without an account, and where you can quickly check and interact with multiple sites that may or may not relate to each other. Also, I want to add more devtool-like features such as maybe exposing the page console, load times, different viewport sizes, etc.

The long-term goal is a launcher of sorts with a built-in browsing experience. A browser wrapped in a browser where you can "install" webapps. Iframes aren't gonna cut it, though...
