Spiritual Browser Galaxy Theme Extension

Overview

A Manifest V3 Chrome extension that replaces the default New Tab page with a calm, spiritual experience — a centered mantra/shlok over an animated cosmic particle background. Lightweight by design: no backend, no analytics, no tracking.

What I Built

  • New Tab override via chrome_url_overrides
  • Animated canvas particle background with interactive line connections between particles
  • Hamburger sidebar with a selectable mantra list and active-state highlighting
  • Multi-line mantra rendering with controlled layout
  • Preference persistence via chrome.storage.local (with a safe fallback)
  • Tested with Jest + jsdom, and packaged for the Chrome Web Store

Tech Stack

Frontend: HTML5, CSS3, vanilla JavaScript (no framework)

Platform: Chrome Extensions Manifest V3

Testing: Jest + jsdom

Use Case

A distraction-free, peaceful new-tab page for anyone who wants a moment of calm and intention every time they open a browser tab — fully local and private.
