TabCloser 3

I'll be working to get this distributed to the Chrome Web Store and Edge Add-on Store!

What's New?

TabCloser has been rewritten to be compliant with the Manifest v3 changes that are coming to Chrome, the UI has been redesigned to be a little more friendly, and TabCloser now supports custom URLs.

New UI

I've redesigned the UI to be a little more streamlined and easier to use.

Custom URLs

Y'all kept asking for it, and it's finally here! You're no longer limited to the default services TabCloser has. Now you can add your very own URLs for TabCloser to close!

Safari® Support

When rewriting TabCloser, I kept Safari top of mind this time around. I've successful converted TabCloser to work with Safari and WebKit and have a build running in Xcode. I'll be bundling an app distribution with this so you can install it on your macOS device. In the meantime I'm going to work to get it submitted to the Apple App Store.

How can I install this release

For Chrome:
Download Source code (zip) of this release and unzip it. Then navigate to chrome://extensions/ and enable "Developer mode" using the toggle in the top right corner. Upload the extension manually by pressing "Load unpacked" and selecting the unzipped TabCloser folder.

For Edge:
Download Source code (zip) of this release and unzip it. Then navigate to edge://extensions/ and enable "Developer mode" in the left sidebar, it's near the bottom. Upload the extension manually by pressing "Load unpacked" and selecting the unzipped TabCloser folder.

For Safari:
tabcloser-3.2.2-macos.zip is available for download here. TabCloser.app was created using Xcode and signed for Direct Distribution, however there are a few steps you'll need to take to enable it.

1.) You can unzip this and drag TabCloser.app to your Applications folder.

2.) Once you install TabCloser you'll need to launch Safari and go to Safari > Settings > Advanced and check Show features for web developers. Once you've done that, go to the Developer tab and enable Allow unsigned extensions.

You can also download the core files here and use Xcode to convert it to a Safari extension on your own. Read this article from Apple to learn how.
