Quick setup guide

New tab experience

Make Zero-Friction your homepage

Websites cannot set your homepage or new tab automatically. Use the steps below, or install the extension for the best experience in Chrome/Edge. If a store listing is configured, the install button opens it directly.

Privacy first

Extension (Chrome & Edge)

Replace the new tab page cleanly (Manifest V3). Install from the store if available, or load the extension manually for self-hosted deployments.

Install extension (Chrome/Edge)

Clicking opens the store listing when configured. Otherwise, this jumps to the manual Load unpacked steps below.

Manual install (self-hosted)

  1. Build the extension with your hosted dashboard URL.
  2. Chrome: open chrome://extensions, enable Developer mode, click Load unpacked, and select the extension/ folder.
  3. Edge: open edge://extensions, enable Developer mode, click Load unpacked, and select the extension/ folder.
  4. Open a new tab. It will redirect to your dashboard URL.

To enable one-click installs later, set NEXT_PUBLIC_EXTENSION_STORE_URL_CHROME / NEXT_PUBLIC_EXTENSION_STORE_URL_EDGE.
