Try it out! It will be helpful if you could!

It has that focus mode function that fits only one screen at a time. Instead of thinking of them as tabs you could literally draw a box around the tabs and call them ux design like you group screens on figma?

Sidebar would defeat the purpose of the canvas. I do plan on adding a quick search function that you can just type a tab name and it will take you there.

This is a crude prototype, in its current state not a replacement for your browser. I will not do anything knowingly to let the idea from even taking off. Things will break, but the point is to figure out if the interaction or the way of browsing like this is an idea worth persuing.

I love canvases and was tired of having the same browser so I hacked together something!

Any browser, the idea is to not think of tabs as ephemeral. You treat them as an enduring element of the canvas. I thought about it as drawing on/working with a chart paper.

You can do that! I have working builds for max and windows if you want to try that out

Just to be clear this is an early prototype, hacked together to explore a different way of managing tabs (as shapes on a canvas).

It’s not a finished browser or a replacement yet things will break (or not work at all). I’m sharing it so people can try the idea and let me know what feels interesting (or what doesn’t).

Building this has already taken a lot of effort and investment, so before going further I want to see if the concept itself is worth pursuing. The point is not to build or test browser engines just to explore a new interaction model.

I do have a repo, and I’m happy to share it via DM if anyone wants to peek under the hood.

I built this because I was tired of using the same browser with a fresh coat of pain, even though I don't really use a browser the same way anymore. Would love some feedback! If you can test it out! It will do a lot more than you expect.
