V3.0.0 Update

v3.0.0

New sessions and sharing workflows, unified global layout, and a massive upgrade to performance and network stability

V3.0.0 Update

⚠️ Important Notice

  • Browser API limits mean folder-level layout settings are no longer supported starting in 3.0.0. Layout choices are now unified in the global settings page with clearer guidance to complete the transition quickly.

🚀 Highlighted Features

  • Brand-new sessions & saved tab groups: Save and restore frequently used tab collections in one click to juggle multiple workflows effortlessly.
  • Upgraded sharing experience: A global share dialog now offers Markdown preview, refined text generation, and integrated card editing and move actions so you can curate content in one place.
  • Menu and dialog system overhaul: New dropdown menus, alert dialogs, card editors, and move dialogs deliver a more consistent and intuitive flow for everyday operations.
  • Enhanced internationalization: Arabic joins the language list alongside refreshed translations and locale rules, making Botab more welcoming worldwide.

⚙️ Performance & Experience Improvements

  • Faster performance & icon rendering: The icon rendering engine has been rebuilt with forced retry support and redundant assets removed, keeping the new tab page snappy.
  • Refined drag-and-edit interactions: Lists, cards, and edit components received structural and styling tweaks for steadier drag feedback and helpful tooltips during edits.
  • Visual consistency upgrades: Card layouts, dropdown menus, list spacing, and icon themes are aligned for a cleaner, more harmonious look.
  • Network & infrastructure boost: Services now run on a new server stack, delivering noticeably better speed and stability worldwide, alongside upgrades to Vuetify, UnoCSS, and other dependencies.

🛠️ Fixes

  • Updated icon URLs to the latest API endpoint to eliminate intermittent load failures.
  • Adjusted list spacing and layout offsets so multi-column views stay consistent.
  • Removed legacy settings, unused variables, and scripts to reduce conflicts and simplify maintenance.
