  • Add new web pages to the list
  • Save list into local storage to load again later
    • Select which list to load from local storage

Future Development

Under The Hood

Frames uses a headless Chrome window on the server in order to take a full-page screenshot of any URL you supply. Then, the screenshot is displayed as a frame within the horizontal list of web pages. If the live web page changes over time, you'll have to manually update the frame for that web page by clicking a refresh button at the bottom-right hand corner of the frame you wish to update.

Disclaimer

This project is meant to be ran in a localized web hosting environment (localhost) due to the fact that the application does not contain any form of user authentication.
