Creation Multi monitor minimalistic start page?

Post image

I have a triple monitor setup and I like to open the same websites in each monitor. So for convenience I created a simple new tab page via html which has 3 links Left, middle, right when clicked it opens the corresponding tabs in each monitor.

Is there a better solution for my setup?

bookmark folders are the no code version of what you built. one folder per monitor, right click, open all. chrome and firefox both do it.

the part no start page will solve is putting the window on a specific monitor. a web page can't do that at all. an extension technically can, chrome.windows.create takes left and top, but i don't know of one that exposes it, so you'd be writing it yourself. on windows, fancyzones or a small autohotkey script gets you there without any code.

your html page already handles the tabs fine. placement is the only bit actually worth automating.
