A better version of OreoSearchPage, now in extension form!
Aki Home is a rework of OreoSearchPage as a Chrome Extension (for now).
I've experienced long wait times for OreoSearchPage to load. Making it an extension just makes it work so much better. I not only took the chance to rebrand it, but to also integrate it with the browser, no longer leaving users to manually enter their bookmarks.
Aki (あき) is a Japanese name meaning "Clean", "Clear", "Simple", etc. Which is what I was aiming for with it. A simple, customisable and clean home that greets you every time you open your browser.
