5## [Unreleased]
6
7## [0.10.0] - 2025-09-24
8
9### Added
10- **Print functionality**: Added Ctrl+Shift+P shortcut to open native print dialogs from any pane. Ctrl+P is blocked at WebKit level to prevent conflicts with pane mode shortcuts
11- **WebKit native favicon detection**: Implemented WebKit's built-in favicon database for automatic favicon detection and URI storage. Enhanced favicon support for all formats (PNG, SVG, ICO) without external dependencies
12
13### Changed
14- **Homepage redesign**: Brutal design with component-scoped styling, dynamic height matching, inline domain-URL layout with fade effects, and tighter spacing
15
16### Fixed
17- **WebView teardown and memory management**: Implemented comprehensive cleanup system to prevent crashes during WebView destruction. Added JavaScript teardown functionality with cleanup handlers for all event listeners, intervals, and global state. Enhanced pane cleanup with proper controller detachment and GTK widget detachment sequencing. Added WebView validity checks before JavaScript evaluation and improved workspace manager pane closing logic with better popup handling
18- **Ctrl+W pane closing**: Fixed Ctrl+W shortcut to properly close active panes including popups. Implemented active WebView detection and proper popup vs regular pane handling via OnWorkspaceMessage for consistent cleanup
19- **WebView script injection segfault**: Fixed segmentation violation when injecting JavaScript into destroyed WebViews during message handling. Added IsDestroyed() safety check to prevent GTK widget corruption
20- **Alt+Arrow workspace navigation**: Fixed Alt+Arrow keys not working for pane navigation after WebView focus changes. Implemented C-level to GTK4 shortcut bridge that ensures workspace navigation works consistently across all panes
21- **Global shortcuts protection**: Fixed window shortcuts (Ctrl+L, Ctrl+F, F12) not working in new panes due to overly aggressive webpage protection. Window shortcuts now properly bubble up to GTK while pane shortcuts remain blocked from webpages. Resolves omnibox and developer tools not responding to keyboard shortcuts in newly created panes
22- **Omnibox keyboard event isolation**: Fixed keyboard event leakage from omnibox to underlying webpages that caused unintended page actions (e.g., typing 's' in omnibox triggering GitHub search). Implemented WebKit-level main-world event blocking that activates when omnibox opens, preventing page JavaScript from receiving keyboard events while preserving native GTK shortcuts (Ctrl+L, Ctrl+F, etc.) and omnibox functionality
23- **Active pane detection**: Replaced complex pane ID abstraction with persistent webview IDs, fixing omnibox unresponsiveness after navigation. Omnibox now works immediately after page navigation without requiring mouse movement
24- **Workspace architecture**: Simplified focus tracking by removing URI change handlers and pane ID injection complexity, improving reliability and reducing codebase by 85 lines
25- **WebView ID propagation**: Added webview ID request/response mechanism for stub builds to ensure JavaScript side knows its webview ID for proper focus validation
26- **Workspace theme integration**: Fixed white borders on inactive panes by implementing dynamic border colors based on GTK theme preference (dark mode: #333333 borders, light mode: #dddddd borders)
27- **GTK window background**: Added theme-aware window and pane background colors to prevent white bleeding through transparent elements
28- **Print dialog window handling**: Fixed GTK window destroy errors during WebView cleanup by only destroying windows when CreateWindow was actually enabled
29- **Modifier key logging noise**: Filtered out Ctrl, Shift, Alt, and Super key presses from accelerator miss logging to reduce console spam
30
31## [0.9.0] - 2025-09-22
32
33### Added
34- **Zellij-style workspace management**: Complete pane splitting system with binary tree layout, focus tracking, and Zellij-inspired keybindings (Ctrl+P for pane mode, arrow keys for splits, 'x' to close)
35- **Multi-pane WebView architecture**: Container-based widget management with proper reparenting, lifecycle handling, and per-pane controllers
36- **Window-level global shortcuts**: Centralized shortcut handling to prevent conflicts between multiple WebView instances
37- **Workspace configuration**: New config section with Zellij controls toggle, pane mode bindings, tab shortcuts, and popup behavior settings
38- **Configurable workspace styling**: Pane border appearance (width, color, transition duration, radius) now customizable via config with proper viewport stability
39- **Popup handling for tiling WM**: Complete popup window support where popups open as workspace panes instead of floating windows, respecting tiling window manager design principles
40- **Universal popup auto-close**: Popup windows (OAuth, window.open(), etc.) automatically close when JavaScript calls window.close(), providing standard browser behavior adapted for workspace panes
41- **Advanced popup deduplication system**: Intelligent duplicate popup prevention with SHA256 fingerprinting and 200ms debounce window to eliminate popup spam
42- **OAuth auto-close integration**: RFC 6749 compliant OAuth callback detection with automatic popup closure for seamless authentication flows
43- **Cross-WebView popup communication**: localStorage-based parent-popup bridge enabling proper `window.opener` functionality in tiling workspace environment
44- **WebView identity tracking**: Unique WebView ID system for precise popup targeting and enhanced debugging capabilities
45
46### Improved
47- WebKit integration now forces GPU compositing by default while still honoring explicit config overrides.
48- Smooth scrolling is enabled (when supported) so wheel and gesture animations feel closer to Chromium/Firefox.
49- Title updates, zoom persistence, and domain zoom lookups are now done off the GTK main thread with results marshalled back safely, eliminating UI hitches during navigation.
50- Added optional DOM-level zoom (enabled by default) to avoid native viewport rescaling; falls back to WebKit zoom if the CSS path fails.
51- DOM zoom now seeds the saved level before the first paint and reuses it during document-start scripts, preventing pages from flashing back to 100%.
52- Native accelerator bridge debounces duplicate GTK key events earlier, so Ctrl±/Ctrl+0 only fires once per physical key press.
53- Omnibox-triggered navigations now reuse the navigation controller, so saved zoom levels are applied before first paint and redundant lookups are avoided.
54- Configuration loading writes the missing `use_dom_zoom` flag into existing config files so DOM zoom defaults persist without manual edits.
55- Omnibox UI now relies on shared Tailwind theme tokens and the injected color-scheme service for light/dark parity.
56- Omnibox overlay now self-heals if hostile pages remove the injected shadow host, ensuring Ctrl/Cmd+L works everywhere.
57- Navigation shortcuts changed from Alt+Arrow to Ctrl/Cmd+Arrow for better workspace compatibility.
58- GUI components now support workspace-aware focus management with pane-specific event handling.
59- **Global zoom shortcuts**: Unified zoom handling at window level (Ctrl+/=/0/-) ensuring zoom applies to currently active pane in multi-pane workspace
60- **Workspace focus management**: Enhanced focus throttling (100ms) and active state tracking to prevent infinite loops and conflicts between panes
61- **Popup management**: Intelligent popup vs tab detection based on window features, with improved auto-close logic for OAuth and login flows
62- **Console logging**: WebView ID context injection for better debugging and log correlation across multiple panes
63
64### Changed
65- **Zoom shortcuts architecture**: Moved from per-WebView registration to centralized window-level handling for consistency with other global shortcuts

290## [0.3.0] - 2025-01-11
291
292### Added
293- WebKit memory controls (opt‑in):
294  - Env vars to tune memory/perf trade‑offs without code changes:
295    - `DUMBER_CACHE_MODEL`, `DUMBER_ENABLE_PAGE_CACHE`
296    - `DUMBER_ENABLE_MEMORY_MONITORING`, `DUMBER_MEMORY_LIMIT_MB`, `DUMBER_MEMORY_POLL_INTERVAL`

351- Rendering mode controls:
352  - CLI flag `--rendering-mode=auto|gpu|cpu` and `DUMBER_RENDERING_MODE` env.
353  - In‑app status endpoint `dumb://homepage/api/rendering/status`.
354- Native zoom shortcuts at the WebKit layer (Ctrl/Cmd+=, +, −, 0) and GTK4 input controllers for keyboard/mouse.
355- AZERTY keyboard fix: treat underscore as minus for zoom‑out.
356- Runtime theme synchronization: watch GTK `gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme` and update page color‑scheme live.
357- Makefile target `check-webkit` to print `pkg-config` versions of GTK4/WebKitGTK 6.0/JSC 6.0.
358- Documentation updates:
359  - README now targets WebKitGTK 6 (GTK4) and lists GStreamer package requirements for Arch and Debian/Ubuntu.
360  - CLAUDE notes updated with migration status, GPU/Vulkan path, runtime theme sync, and persistence.
361
362### Changed
363- Build flags and includes now target `webkitgtk-6.0`, `gtk4`, and `javascriptcoregtk-6.0`.
364- GTK4 APIs for windowing and event handling (GtkEventController, GtkGestureClick) replace GTK3/GdkEvent paths.
365
366### Removed
367- Legacy WebKit2GTK constructors and container APIs.
368- JavaScript fallback for UCM message bridging.
369
370### Fixed
371- Header/enum compatibility for hardware acceleration policy and cookie policy across WebKit header variants.
372- Linker error for `on_theme_changed` and gpointer usage in signal connections.
373- Crashy paths mitigated by default “media safe” startup (can be disabled via `DUMBER_MEDIA_SAFE=0`).
374
375### Notes
376- GPU rendering path leverages GTK4’s renderer (Vulkan/OpenGL). Mode `auto` uses GPU when available and falls back gracefully to CPU.
377- WebKitGTK relies on GStreamer; install recommended packages for audio/video (see README).
378
379## [0.1.0] - 2025-09-09
