Some Twitter accounts post excellent, thoughtful tweets. I often go onto Twitter to see these tweets but I end up getting distracted by some of the other attention-grabbing content on the app. To battle this, I built Twittab, a new page chrome extension which lets you see tweets from your favourite account without distractions.
Users can double-click the background to see the input form which takes a Twitter handle. The Twitter API v2 is used to get up to 600 of the user’s tweets and store them in Chrome’s local storage. Every time a user opens a new tab or refreshes the page, a new tweet appears. Depending on which account you follow, you can get motivational, informational or entertaining content.
You can download the Chrome extension from Chrome Webstore here and see the source code on Github here.
