Recently I discovered this chrome extension called manganum that adds a sidebar with a bunch of useful features like chatgpt, google calendar and todoist. Sadly there is no firefox version. Is there something similar but for firefox?

output from https://www.extensiontest.com/ doenst look like this specific addon could easily be ported or reproduced, mostly because the tabGroups API (ref. https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/reference/tabGroups/) AFAIK is not available

ref.

... on the other hand i am not sure how required this "feature" would be just for the sidebar functions. i guess one could strip it out and check if the addon would still work "good enough".

edit: i briefly tried and failed, also because the addon is pretty obfuscated. So yeah the only ones who will be able to make it work is the addon developers i guess.
