Celerity keeps your shortcut list entirely in your hands. You can add any site you visit often, update a key or URL you no longer want, or remove shortcuts you have outgrown — all from the Settings panel without leaving your new tab page.

​
Opening Settings

Reach the Settings panel in either of these two ways:
  • Click the gear icon (⚙) in the top-right corner of any new tab page.
  • Press Alt + + (the plus / equals key) anywhere on a new tab page.

​
Adding a shortcut

The shortcut list always ends with an empty row — three blank input fields waiting for a new entry. Fill them in and confirm to create your shortcut.
1

Open Settings

Click the gear icon or press Alt + +.
2

Scroll to the empty row

The last row in the shortcut list has empty Key, Name, and URL placeholders. Click the Key field to start typing.
3

Fill in the three fields

Enter a unique key (e.g. tw), the site name (e.g. Tailwind CSS), and the URL (e.g. tailwindcss.com).
4

Confirm the new shortcut

Press Enter in any field, or click the + (add) button at the right end of the row.
5

Verify the new tile

The shortcut appears in the grid on your new tab page immediately — no refresh needed.
URL auto-formatting — Celerity normalizes what you type before saving:
  • A single-word input with no dots is expanded to a .com domain (e.g. tailwind becomes tailwind.com).
  • Any URL without a protocol gets https:// prepended automatically (e.g. tailwindcss.com becomes https://tailwindcss.com).
If the key you typed already exists, a confirmation dialog asks whether you want to override the existing shortcut. Click Override to replace it, or Cancel to go back and choose a different key.

​
Editing a shortcut

You can change a shortcut’s key, display name, or URL at any time. Rows are read-only until you explicitly unlock them for editing.
1

Open Settings

Click the gear icon or press Alt + +.
2

Find the shortcut row

Scroll through the list until you see the shortcut you want to change.
3

Enter edit mode

Click the pencil (edit) button on the right side of the row. All three fields become editable and focus moves to the Key field.
4

Make your changes

Update the Key, Name, or URL as needed.
5

Save

Press Enter in any field, or click the checkmark (save) button that replaced the pencil icon.
Two validation rules apply when saving an edited shortcut:
  • All fields are required. Attempting to save with any empty field is blocked; focus moves to the first blank field so you can fill it in.
  • Key collisions require confirmation. If you change the key to one that already exists, a confirmation dialog asks whether to override it — the same flow as adding a duplicate key.

​
Deleting a shortcut

Removing a shortcut takes only two clicks — a confirmation dialog protects you from accidental deletions.
1

Open Settings

Click the gear icon or press Alt + +.
2

Find the shortcut row

Scroll the list to the shortcut you want to remove.
3

Click the trash icon

Click the trash button on the right side of the row.
4

Confirm the deletion

Click Delete in the confirmation dialog. Click Cancel to abort and keep the shortcut.
5

Verify removal

The shortcut disappears from the grid immediately after you confirm.

​
Empty state

If you delete every shortcut, the grid replaces all tiles with a single large + tile in the center. Click that tile to open Settings — from there you can add your first shortcut and start rebuilding your list.
Your shortcuts are saved automatically in your browser. They persist across sessions and are not shared with any server.
