Moved site and search history management from the main process to the renderer for better performance and reliability. Updated settings UI to use a sidebar tab layout with improved accessibility and responsive design. Refactored tab rendering in the browser to use efficient scheduling and added a robust tab label function. Cleaned up context menu code and improved async file operations for bookmarks and history.
Updated Electron window and session configuration to enhance Google OAuth sign-in compatibility, including user agent spoofing, session partitioning, and webview security settings. Added debugging for cookie changes and improved request headers for OAuth flows. Updated renderer code and index.html to use the new session partition and user agent. Added oauth-debug.md to document changes and troubleshooting steps.
Refactored createTab to properly set webview attributes (id, src, allowpopups, partition, preload) for correct loading and management. Updated site-history.json with recent search and navigation entries.
Enhanced inter-process communication for theme updates and navigation between home, settings, and main browser pages. Theme changes in settings now propagate to home via Electron IPC and postMessage fallback. Navigation requests from home and other webviews are handled more robustly, supporting both Electron IPC and postMessage. Also refactored tab creation and improved event handling for better reliability.
Ensure the webviews container is visible when converting a home tab to a webview, and activate the converted tab in the UI. Also, update webview CSS to set width and height to 100% for better layout consistency.
Eliminated the custom site history dropdown UI and its related event handlers from script.js. Updated Electron to version 37.2.4 in package.json and package-lock.json. Cleared entries from search-history.json and site-history.json.
Site history is now managed in localStorage for faster access and better cross-tab experience, with file sync for persistence. Added a dropdown for quick site history access in the address bar, updated settings page to display and manage site history from localStorage, and improved history recording logic in both main and renderer processes. Also added debug info and test data utilities for development.
