Veb 0.3

Reference archive: this page documents the original Yab browser. Features, platforms and release dates here do not describe the current Veb prototype. Veb release plans →

Google in the welcome for your mail, meetings and codes in one Allow, a chat column that reads like a messages app, the player as an island of glass, and mail that takes every act back. Also Chrome's Developer Tools and console, and a notebook of what Get to Know learned about you.

Added

  • Connect Google in the welcome: the account you already use, and with one Allow your mail, your next meeting beside your tabs and the codes sites mail you.

  • Your next meeting comes from the Google Calendar of every account connected in Settings › Mail.

  • Developer Tools in Chrome's order, with everything Chrome's has: the picker, device mode, Elements, Console, Sources, Network and the rest.

  • What went wrong on a page, drawn as Chrome's console, and handed to your agent one, several or all at once.

  • Get to Know ends on a notebook, yab://you: what it kept about you, to cross out or fix.

  • Done ⌘↩ finishes an agent's answer: the card goes, and the chat with its task's tabs; hold ⌥ to keep them.

  • The chat column is headed as a messages app: the agent's face over the chat's name, one ⋯ menu, rename, archive and delete, and a chat's own screen with every page it read.

  • A new chat offers ideas about the page you're on.

  • The player is an island of Liquid Glass at the window's corner, with the way back to its tab and the other tabs playing; hide it from its menu or Settings › Tabs.

  • Every mail act can be taken back with ⌘Z, and a mail opens out of its row into the letter.

  • Mail search rises over the column with your recent searches and people, and lights the words it found in the list.

  • Settings › Developers: Developer Mode, the yab command, and Veb's skill and tools for your agent.

  • Pick Veb's app icon in Settings › Appearance.

  • Links from a pinned tab to another site open in a peek.

  • Cards' security codes come in from Chromium browsers.

Improved

  • Every step of an agent's work is said one way, in the chat and on its tabs.

  • A page in device mode is laid out at the device's width.

  • The trackpad ticks as a guide catches an edge or a middle.

  • Plans are named as their makers name them: Claude or ChatGPT, Pro, Max, Business.

  • Closing a link's tab, or swiping back from it, returns to the tab it came from.

  • A code is offered only from the site and account that asked for it.

  • Mail reminders leave cold sales pitches out.

  • An empty list says what it is: Clipboard History, Emoji, Mail and the model lists.

  • An extension's update asks only about what it adds.

  • Smoother gestures and fuller media controls on the floating player.

  • Nothing under the pointer grows or shrinks: Copy keeps its width as it says Copied.

Fixed

  • Shortcuts reach the right place across windows, fields and keyboard layouts.

  • Swiping into Mail with one space, and dark mail's text contrast.

  • Reading mode keeps your selection visible on dark sites.

  • The welcome's lightness and grain sliders drag again.

  • Ad blocking's exceptions for whole lists of sites.
