    Transform how you manage browser tabs with Tree Style Tab Manager - the ultimate tab organization solution that displays your tabs in a clean, hierarchical tree structure.
    
    🌳 WHAT IS IT?
    Tree Style Tab Manager organizes your tabs in a parent-child tree structure within Chrome's native side panel. Instead of a cluttered horizontal tab bar, you get a clear tree view showing relationships between tabs. When you open a link in a new tab, it automatically becomes a child of the parent tab - creating a natural hierarchy.
    
    
    ✨ WHY INSTALL IT?
    ✅ Better Organization - Tabs automatically organize into parent-child relationships
    ✅ Never Lose Tabs - Closed tabs stay visible for 3 days for easy restoration
    ✅ Visual Clarity - See tab relationships at a glance with expand/collapse controls
    ✅ Active Tab Highlighting - Instantly identify your current tab
    ✅ Powerful Search - Find tabs quickly by title or URL
    ✅ Drag & Drop - Reorganize tabs effortlessly
    ✅ Native Integration - Uses Chrome's built-in side panel
    ✅ Privacy First - All data stored locally, no tracking

    🚀 KEY FEATURES
    
    📊 Hierarchical Tree View
    Tabs automatically nest under the tab that opened them. Expand or collapse entire branches. Visual connectors show depth at a glance.
    
    💾 Snapshot Sessions (New)
    Save your entire open workspace as a named snapshot. Restore later with three modes: replace current tabs, open in new windows, or merge with what's open. Undo a restore instantly. Monitor-aware window placement puts each window back where it belongs. Overwrite a snapshot with your current tabs or rename it anytime.
    
    🚫 Site Exclusions (New)
    Keep your tree clean by excluding specific domains. Excluded sites won't appear in the tree at all — perfect for localhost, internal tools, or any high-frequency site you don't want cluttering your hierarchy.
    
    🗂️ Save & Close
    Save a session and close all its tabs in one action — great for winding down a research session without losing your work.
    
    🔄 Precision Drag & Drop (Upgraded)
    Three-zone dropping: hover the top edge to insert before, the middle to nest as a child, or the bottom edge to insert after. A dedicated drag handle prevents accidental drags. Auto-scroll kicks in when dragging near the panel edges.
    
    🔍 Instant Search
    Live filtering by title or URL — the tree updates as you type, smoothly and without lag.
    
    ⏱️ Smart Virtual Tabs
    Closed tabs remain visible and restorable. Set the expiry window from 12 hours to 7 days — or choose Never Expire. Clock badges show time remaining at a glance.
    
    🎨 Themes & Accessibility
    Multiple themes with fully consistent highlight and hover colors. Full keyboard accessibility with aria-live toasts, labeled icon buttons, and accessible theme swatches.
    
    🔒 Complete Privacy
    All data lives on your device. No analytics, no cloud sync, no external servers. Data is deleted on uninstall.
