🌍 WanaGo: Transform Your Browser's New Tab into a Travel Dashboard

WanaGo Extension Screenshot

Are you tired of the default, boring new tab page? As developers, we stare at our screens all day. I wanted to build something that provides a micro-escape and fuels inspiration every time I open a new tab.

Meet WanaGo — a lightweight Chrome extension that turns your new tab into a beautiful travel dashboard.

✨ Key Features

  • Stunning HD Wallpapers: Enjoy curated travel photography from around the globe (e.g., Japan, Iceland, Switzerland, and more).
  • Integrated Travel Search: Quickly search for flights and hotels directly from your new tab using Agoda, Booking.com, or Expedia.
  • Built-in Productivity Tools: Features a minimal clock, a quick To-Do list, and destination bookmarking.
  • Voice Search: Integrated Google search with voice recognition support.

🛠️ The Tech Stack

I wanted to keep the extension fast and bloat-free.

  • Frontend: Vanilla JavaScript, HTML5, and CSS3.
  • Storage: LocalStorage API for saving user preferences, bookmarks, and to-do items.
  • Data: A custom JSON structure handling over 500+ destinations with mapping logic for seamless booking integrations.
