Introduce support for an internal nebula:// URL scheme and internal page routing (ResolveInternalUrl / ToInternalUrl), including dedicated slugs for home, settings, downloads, big-picture, gpu-diagnostics, insecure and a 404 fallback. Wire internal resolution into browser creation and tab navigation so internal pages load from local UI files. Add an insecure-warning interstitial flow with a navigate-insecure command and a one-shot bypass set (ShouldBypassInsecureWarning) so content can request navigating to an HTTP target after user confirmation. Harden BrowserClient handling to resolve Chromium new-tab and nebula internal URLs, redirect HTTP to the insecure warning when appropriate, and handle 404 responses by loading the internal 404 page. Update chrome UI behavior to hide internal home URLs, accept nebula:// in navigation input checks, and add a GPU Diagnostics page (revamped UI + diagnostic scripts) plus menu entry. Misc: improve URL utilities (scheme checks, percent-encoding, decorations), fix 404 display text, adjust menu popup size, tweak window frame styling (DWM attributes) and remove branding block from chrome UI CSS.
Introduce core application structure and browser management: add NebulaController and run entry (src/app/*) to centralize window, tab and CEF lifecycle logic; implement TabManager and NebulaTab (src/browser/*) for tab creation, navigation and state tracking; add URL utilities (NormalizeNavigationInput, JsonEscape) and CEF browser client glue (src/cef/browser_client.cpp/.h) to forward chrome commands and content events. Update app/main.cpp to delegate startup to nebula::app::RunNebula. Add UI assets (chrome.html, chrome.css, chrome.js, lucide, menu-popup updates) and remove obsolete nebot.html. Update CMakeLists to include new sources, add ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/src to includes and link dwmapi on Windows. Overall this refactors startup and splits responsibilities for cleaner tab and browser lifecycle handling.
Add initial Nebula Browser project skeleton: CMakeLists to configure and link CEF (including post-build steps to copy runtime and UI files), a Windows CEF-based entry (app/main.cpp) that initializes CEF and loads the bundled UI, and a full ui/ and assets/ tree (HTML, CSS, JS, fonts, icons, and branding images). Update .gitignore to ignore build/out, thirdparty/cef, IDE and common OS artifacts.
