Focus Mode: a chrome extension for single-tab browsing

A Chrome extension that helps people focus on one tab without a URL bar or bookmarks.

Problem it solvesToo many open tabs make it hard to stay focused.

Alex made Focus Mode, a Chrome extension for people who want to focus on a single tab. He reports it surpassed $175 in revenue and had 35 people.

I told my mom that I’d earned $175 online I think I finally saw pride in her eyes 🥲 I’ve always spent my time developing projects and trying out new ideas. But every time, I hear the same thing: **“Maybe you should find a real job!”** It hurts, and in that moment, when my heart tightens and all I want to do is walk out of the room I keep my head up because I know what drives me. I can’t be understood by everyone, after all. Because everyone has their own journey, and that’s especially true of my parents, who still say “the internet” instead of “internet.” So be it I kept working on my projects, and recently one of them surpassed $175 in revenue! **35 people.** $4.99 for life (we can all agree that’s not my best business plan… 😅) But anyway, I was able to proudly tell my mom about it. And I could tell her expression had changed. I can’t quite explain what it was. But it was like, **“Maybe he’s not such an idiot after all,”** or something along those lines 🥲 In any case, I could tell she was reassured. And you have no idea how good that felt, and how much it boosts morale! Can’t wait to show you what’s next and the other projects coming up! By the way, the project I told you about is [Focus Mode](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/fcajcgfjhilkdnbnmighhcbogikibkmh?utm_campaign=1310MS), a Chrome extension that lets you focus on a single tab by opening your current tab in an interface without a URL bar, bookmarks, or tabs—and it even works in windowed mode! (I’m sure I’m not the only one with the bad habit of having 45 tabs open every day.) **Thanks, by the way, to everyone who helped make this happen, and with whom I continue to exchange ideas 🙏** Have a great day, everyone! ☀️ And happy building! Alex

    A Chrome extension that tracks small productivity progress

    Small progress on my Chrome extension: 38 installs 4 weekly users Weekly users are up 103% from the previous period. Still a tiny number, but seeing people come back and use something I built is encouraging. Keeping at it and learning how distribution works.

    A Chrome extension that tracks installs and weekly users

    39 installs for my Chrome extension. Still small, but seeing weekly users grow is encouraging. Building the product is only half the job. Getting people to discover it — and keep using it — is the harder part. One small step at a time.

    An app that scales with organic content posting

    Day 27 of scaling my app to $10k/month. 16 active subs. $551.40 revenue in the last 28 days. No big spike today. That's organic: someone may see a slideshow now and search for the app later or never. I can't predict the next sale. I can keep making useful content and posting.
