First try creating extension: treelike tabgroups

[nightmareTomek]

Hello everyone!

Background: I want to have a feature in Chrome, but there's no extension for it (yet). So I decided to take a look at how to do it myself. I've been reading for an hour and created the "hello extensions" example somewhere in the documentations. Working fine. Now before I continue reading for the next 4h to find out what I want to do is impossible, I thought to myself to ask here.

What I want to do: I want tabgroups and tabs have a tree-like appearance. Currently when you click on a tabgroup, the tabs within are opened to the right. I want them opened below. So I'm able to see other tabgroups even if the opened tabgroup has 50 tabs in it - which would otherwise push the other tabgroups to the side and/or squeeze them.

Any idea if that's even possible? Any idea where to start looking for syntax? Do I need Chromium, or is Chrome fine?

Any help would be appreciated!

You can't control the browser's tab strip UI. No api to do it.

You can use Edge browser. It supports vertical tabs feature. In that mode, tabgroup expands itself vertically.
