Overview

Sparks replaces your new tab with a random quote from scientists, engineers, and innovators—each with a portrait and a link to learn more.

Features:
• New-tab override — Opening a new tab shows a single quote, author portrait, and author link (Grokipedia when available).
• Random on load — A new quote is chosen each time you open a new tab.
• Refresh — Click the Sparks logo in the footer to load another random quote.
• Offline-friendly — Quotes can be embedded at build time so the extension works without an internet connection.

The quotes are drawn from a curated list. Each entry includes the quote text, author name, portrait image, and a link to learn more about the person (e.g. Grokipedia). No permissions required; no user data collected.
