butter: new tab with calendar, todo & GitHub

Description

Turn your new tab into a dashboard: calendar, todos, GitHub PRs, Linear issues, pomodoro — and it teaches you a language. butter turns Chrome's new tab into a productivity dashboard with draggable, resizable widgets. PRs, Linear issues, focus timer, markets, notes — built for developers who live in the browser. WHAT'S BUILT IN (15 widgets) • Clock & Weather — local conditions and time at a glance, timezone picker for a second clock • Pomodoro — focus + break timer with circular progress, alarm sounds, OS notifications • Quick Links — your bookmark grid with automatic favicons • Todo — dates, priority, tags, natural-language quick-add ("reply to Sam tomorrow !high #work") • Scratchpad — live markdown rendering: type `# heading`, `- bullet`, `[ ] task` • Hacker News — front page • Inspiration — image grid from any Are.na channel • GitHub — PRs awaiting your review, in line with everything else • Contributions — your GitHub heatmap and streak, tinted with your theme's accent • Linear — open issues assigned to you • Google Calendar — your agenda (today, three days, or the week — the widget adapts to its size) with countdown to your next meeting and one-click join • Ticker — crypto and stock watchlist with prices, daily change, and 7-day sparklines. Crypto works with zero setup; stocks take your own free Finnhub key • AI Inbox — AI-written triage of your PRs and Linear issues, ranked by what needs you next. It learns, too: what you click, complete, and dismiss tunes the ranking over time (1 free triage a day; Pro lifts the cap) • Quote — a quiet rotation for the corner of the dashboard EIGHT HANDCRAFTED THEMES • Four dark (Butter, Dracula, Tokyo Night, Nord) and four light (Butter, Paper, Mist, Linen) • Each is a complete palette with its own accent that reaches into every widget — even the contribution heatmap wears it • System mode glides between your light and dark picks with your OS START FROM A TEMPLATE • Pick a role on first run — Engineer, PM / Founder, Designer, or Minimal — and land on a complete dashboard, not an empty grid • Connect GitHub, Linear, or Google Calendar right in the flow so your widgets fill with real data immediately • Screenshot tool — Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+S captures your dashboard with size presets for Twitter, Instagram, and desktop wallpapers, plus one-click copy or download WORKS WITH THE TAB CLOSED • Desktop notifications — butter checks your AI Inbox in the background and notifies you when something new needs attention.
