Kshetez Vinayak
Kshetez Vinayak is the indie developer behind SupaSidebar, a macOS app that brings Arc's sidebar to every browser. He started building SupaSidebar in July 2025 after Arc moved on to build Dia, leaving its users without the sidebar experience they loved.
Why I Built SupaSidebar
The hardest part of leaving Arc wasn't the browser - it was losing the sidebar. The spaces. The pins. The muscle memory. Switching to Safari, Chrome, or Brave, nothing came close.
Most of us need more than one browser. Safari for personal, Chrome for work, maybe another for something else. And that's when things fall apart - bookmarks in three different places, tabs scattered across windows.
There was no single place to manage it all. So I built one. SupaSidebar is now used by over 1,000 people, which still feels surreal for something I started from my bedroom.
Outside of Code
Outside of building SupaSidebar, I play a lot of Mobile Legends and BGMI. Big sports guy - I'll play pretty much anything but basketball is my go-to. Also been hitting the gym regularly for the past month so that's new.
If we ever end up at an amusement park together, just know I'm going on every ride at least twice and I'll probably be the loudest person there. Not screaming - just very excited.
