Empty New Tab

About

Turn every new tab into a completely blank page that matches your browser theme (white for light mode, black for dark mode.)
Chrome's default new tab page shows animations, shortcuts, and other elements you don't need. Every time you open a tab, something is competing for your attention. This extension removes all of it, giving you a perfectly empty page so you can stay focused on your work.

Features
- Completely blank new tab page. (no logos, no search bar, no shortcuts, no animations)
- Automatically matches your browser theme: white in light mode, black in dark mode
- Lightweight and instant. (nothing to load, nothing to configure)
- No data collection, no network requests, no permissions beyond replacing the new tab page

Who is this for?
Anyone who finds the default new tab page distracting: writers, developers, students, or anyone who wants their browser to stay out of the way.

How to restore the default new tab page
If you want to go back to Chrome's original new tab page, simply turn off this extension. Go to chrome://extensions, find this extension, and toggle it off (or remove it). The default new tab page will come back immediately.
