  description

  Parallel Bookmarks View is designed for Chrome users who have many bookmarks and do not want to scroll through the default bookmark menu again and again. After you click the extension icon, it opens a multi-column bookmarks panel in the upper-right corner of the current web page. The panel automatically adjusts the number of columns based on the current screen height and bookmark count: a small bookmark set stays in one column, while larger collections expand into multiple columns from right to left.
  
  Main features:
  - Reads local Chrome bookmarks and displays them in folder order.
  - Automatically chooses the column count: one column when it fits, more columns when needed.
  - Searches by title, URL, and folder path.
  - Shows website favicons, with a text fallback when an icon cannot be loaded.
  - Falls back to a standalone bookmarks window on Chrome internal pages where content scripts cannot be injected.
  
  Privacy summary: the extension only reads and displays bookmarks locally. It does not collect, store, sell, transmit, or share user data, and it does not use remote servers or third-party analytics services.

  Parallel Bookmarks View is designed for Chrome users who keep many items on the bookmark bar. After you click the extension icon, it opens a right-aligned multi-column bookmarks panel in the upper-right corner of the current web page, making bookmark bar browsing feel closer to the native bookmarks menu while reducing repeated scrolling in Chrome's default overflow menu.
  
  The panel automatically adjusts to the number of bookmarks and the available screen height: it stays in one column when everything fits, and adds more columns only when needed. Folders stay collapsed by default so the first view does not recursively expand every nested bookmark. When you hover a folder, its contents open as a dark right-side flyout from that folder's position; nested folders can continue opening to the right, and the flyouts close automatically when the pointer leaves.
  
  Main features:
  
  - Opens a right-aligned adaptive multi-column bookmarks panel on the current web page.
  - Falls back to a standalone bookmarks window when the current page does not allow content script injection.
  - Shows the current bookmark-bar level only; folders do not recursively expand by default.
  - Hover a folder to open its child bookmarks and child folders as cascading flyout menus.
  - Click a folder to enter the next level, and use Back to return to the parent level.
  - Opens bookmarks in the current tab, matching the browser's native bookmarks behavior.
  - Searches the current level by title, URL, and folder path.
  - Displays website favicons and stores local icon cache data to reduce repeated loading and flicker.
  - Includes a refresh icon button to manually reload favicons for bookmark bar items and bookmarks inside folders.
  - Right-click a bookmark to open, edit, copy its URL, refresh its icon, or delete the real bookmark.
  - Drag bookmarks within the same level to reorder them; the new order is saved to the browser's real bookmarks.
  - Includes Original, Cool, Cute, and Fresh visual themes and remembers the selected theme.
  - Supports English and Chinese UI.
  - Does not use remote servers, ads, trackers, remote code, or third-party analytics.
