Aura Start

Aura Start replaces the new tab page with a clean local-first start page for organizing your own groups of links.
Create groups, add links, search across titles, URLs, descriptions, and tags, reorder groups and links with drag and drop, and keep everything stored locally in your browser profile.
Aura Start does not require an account, backend, analytics, tracking, forced cloud sync, browser history access, browser bookmarks access, host permissions, or paid data access. Your links belong to you.

Key features:
- User-created link groups
- Local storage with `chrome.storage.local`
- Light, dark, and system themes
- English, Russian, Spanish, German, French, Portuguese, and Ukrainian interface languages
- Compact mode and configurable columns
- Search across title, URL, description, and tags
- Explicit edit mode: drag-and-drop and inline edit controls stay disabled until you turn editing on
- Drag and drop for groups and links
- JSON backup import with validation, merge, replace, and restore point protection
- A Fine Start export-code import for migration
- Restore points before destructive actions
- Export as JSON, Browser Bookmarks HTML, Markdown, CSV, and A Fine Start export code
- Fully open-source under the MIT License (https://github.com/communism420/Aura-Start)

Aura Start was inspired by the simplicity and bookmark-grouping idea of A Fine Start. It is an independent project, not affiliated with A Fine Start.
