What is startpage?
'Startpage' is a Firefox add-on that allows you to customize your browser's new tab page. Key features include an easy customization menu, keyboard controls, a customizable search function, and an export/import function. You can tailor the design using simple CSS syntax, defining colors with hex color codes and square sizes in pixels, turning your start page into a hub of your favorite sites and tools. It's particularly useful for those who regularly switch between devices, as configurations can be exported and imported for seamless use.

Super simple and easy to edit. My only complaint is that I can't set this as my homepage, but I do not think that is something that can be done with extension pages!
