  Your gateway to a calmer, more focused web.
  Zengate lets you block any website that pulls your attention away — social media, news feeds, video platforms, or anything else you choose. When you try to visit a blocked site, you'll see a clean block page instead.
  Key features:
  
  Block any website with a single click
  Optional redirect: instead of just a block page, automatically send yourself to a URL of your choice — a to-do list, a study timer, your project dashboard, whatever keeps you on track
  Manage your block list easily from the extension popup
  Works instantly with no account or sign-up required
  Lightweight and privacy-friendly — no data is collected or sent anywhere
  
  Who is this for?
  Students, remote workers, writers, developers — anyone who wants to build better browsing habits without relying on willpower alone.
  How it works:
  
  Click the Zengate icon in your toolbar
  Add the websites you want to block
  (Optional) Set a redirect URL to send yourself somewhere useful
  Browse — Zengate handles the rest
  
  Your block list is stored locally on your device and never leaves your browser.
