I just pushed the v1.1.0 update for Gekko Browser, focusing on making the browsing experience a bit more flexible.

New features include:

Vertical Taskbar for better screen use.

Split View for side-by-side multitasking.

Custom homepage backgrounds.

Drag-and-drop tab reordering.

Existing users can update their current install, or you can find the new release here:

While implementing a file drag-and-drop feature in one of my Electron-based apps, I fortuitously found an issue in the Electron framework which I believe could be a major security hole... Fortunately, this was not too difficult to fix, but I still don't understand why this has been overlooked so far...

All applications have been corrected and can be downloaded from my Codeberg repository:

The latest version v6.4.0 of the open-source application "Color Ramp Formulator" is now available, fixing an odd bug: the "Apply Color Map" child window would not open when the application was unpackaged.

What is Electron: The Hard Parts Made Easy

According to the "Can I Unicode‽" web page, as of today, the #Chrome navigator is still "stuck" in Unicode 15.1, while the latest version of #Unicode is 17.0!

The fact that the #Electron framework is based on #Chromium probably explains why it is still lagging behind too...

Supporting Unicode 16.0 would allow me to produce a final stable version of my Unicopedia Plus app, before I can start working on a version for Unicode 17.0.
