Hello ProductHunt! I created Tabli as a side project to cure my own frustrations at the difficulty of finding tabs when you have too many tabs open, and as a way to maintain collections of tabs organized by topic. Tabli is free to use and doesn't violate your privacy or share your data. Happy to answer any questions and would welcome feedback from the PH community.

Already testing it And already use it quite a lot - thumbs up!

This looks really useful! Do you have any intention to monetize somehow, or did you just make it for fun?
Antony Courtney
@richlowenberg Thanks! No plans to monetize. It's just something I needed myself, a great educational vehicle for learning about all of the development, design and marketing tasks involved in shipping a product like this, and a way to give back to the open source world and hopefully establish some good will and credibility with users.

Cool product! I've been looking for something like this for a long time now, do you think it would be possible to implement drag&drop for moving tabs between windows?
Antony Courtney
@rimher Thanks! This is by far the most requested feature request for Tabli. No promises, but it's on my radar...
Patrick Coombe
Interesting, and question: how is this better than / different from bookmarks/favorites or whatever they are called these days?
Antony Courtney
@patrickcoombe Tabli provides both a convenient way to manage all your open windows and tabs (which has no real connection to bookmarks) and saved windows. Tabli's Saved Windows feature is a flat collection of tabs that will always be opened together in a single window. Saved windows tend to be used more for reference pages that you want to keep open, whereas traditional bookmarks might be for something you visit rarely. Saved Windows are stored on the back end as folders of bookmarks, but the UI provides convenient features integrated with tab and window management such as reverting back to the saved state (discarding all ephemeral tabs). For more details, check out http://antonycourtney.github.io/...

@antonycourtney very interesting, only commenting because the screenshot had like 20-30 open tabs/windows which seems really excessive. I really have a 4-5 max tab "rule" even though most my machines are 16-32GB/SSD/i7's. definitely wasn't implying that it had a connection to bookmarks, but it almost seems like the same principle for people that keep tabs open for extended periods of time. either way, great product. I'm not a Chrome user but defintiely something I would recommend to people that need more tab organization in their lives.

I use TabOutliner ( https://www.producthunt.com/tech... ) for this. one of the few chrome extensions that I actually pay for
Antony Courtney
@_jacksmith TabsOutliner looks great and clearly has lots of features. Tabli certainly has far less features than the paid version of TabsOutliner. Aside from that, Tabli's UI is a bit less intrusive (a popup vs an ever present sidebar window), and a bit less busy. In my (obviously biased!) view, Tabli is a bit easier on the eyes when doing a quick visual scan than the tree structure of TabsOutliner, but that's bound to be subjective. Tabli's design is focused on just allowing you to quickly find and switch tabs and save and restore sets of Tabs. For a somewhat tortured analogy: If you want the Swiss Army Knife of Tab Switchers, you should get TabsOutliner. But if your tastes and aesthetics lean more towards the Leatherman, please give Tabli a try. ;-)

@antonycourtney true. the new window part is kind of annoying
Josh Friedman
Nicely done. Looks useful. I'll be trying Tabli out.

Would be nice to have a popup / warning when clicking x for parent items. One click and all my 32 tabs, gone :( cool idea though!
Antony Courtney
@mariepoopins Really sorry that this happened to you! The visual design of the window summary is intended to look a bit like the browser window itself, so the little 'x' dismiss button behaves the same way as the corresponding feature of a browser window. For the more novel Tabli feature of reverting a saved window, Tabli does offer a confirmation dialog: http://antonycourtney.github.io/... I know this is all small consolation when you've just lost a bunch of tabs though... :-(
Marie C.
@antonycourtney hey don't sweat it, needed a new start anyway! I've used it & it's nice to group them by windows. But I think usually it's just 1 window with gazillion tabs (maybe just me?). So some sort of interface where I can visually group tabs under a group that I manually created would be really really handy.
Antony Courtney
@mariepoopins Thanks for the understanding and your suggestion. A way to drag and drop between windows is probably the most requested feature and so high on my radar. In the meantime you can use Chrome's ability to drag tabs between windows to set up a Chrome window just the way you want and then save that for later. Please take a look at: http://antonycourtney.github.io/...
