About this extension
Translate to Tab is the ultimate productivity tool for deep reading and research. Instead of squeezing translations into tiny bubbles, we instantly open them in a dedicated, isolated tab. Keep your original page clean and view your translation in its own space.

Why Choose Translate to Tab?

Dedicated, Isolated View:
Don't settle for small popovers. View translations in their own isolated tab where you can focus. Perfect for long articles, documents, and research papers.

Smart Tab Recycling:
We hate browser clutter too! Our Smart Tab Management intelligently reuses a single translation tab for subsequent queries. Translate 10 times, use only 1 extra tab.

Zero-Trace Privacy:
Your data is arguably your most valuable asset. We DO NOT track your history, store your queries, or analyse your reading habits. We simply act as a bridge to Google Translate.

Lightning Fast Workflow:
1. Select text.
2. Right-click.
3. Boom. Translation in a new tab.

Key Features:
* Seamless Workflow: Right-click on selected text to instantly open a translation in a new tab.
* Smart Tab Management: Intelligently reuses the existing translation tab to avoid clutter, or choose to always open a fresh tab.
* Customizable Languages: Configure your preferred target languages to appear directly in the context menu for quick access.
* Clean & Privacy-Focused: No background tracking, no history storage. Just a direct link to Google Translate with your text.

How to use:
1. Go to the extension options to select your target languages (e.g., "Spanish", "French").
2. Select text on any webpage.
3. Right-click and choose "Translate to [Language]".
4. A new tab opens with the translation!
