In the new, reinvented version of Opera, Tab Islands are the first manifestation of its Modular Design: they are clearly distinguishable in the browser UI, marked by separate colors and clear island borders. As you browse and more tab islands are created, you can easily distinguish the topics you were focusing on and switch between them. Do you have a bunch of Google Docs you use for work? They, too, can get a tab island of their own. Are you looking for the best lunch restaurant? The tabs with the menus, locations, and restaurant details will open in a dedicated tab island. Tab Islands are a new way of keeping tabs that are related to each other together in an intuitive way – without forcing users to change their habits. Opera One's new Tab Islands address this challenge. Moreover, according to Opera's research, the majority of people feel overwhelmed by how messy their tabs get and wish web browsers would do more to help them manage their tabs.
Researchers have found that the existing tab design in browsers makes it difficult to jump between sets of tasks. Tab Islands is a new feature that delivers a smooth and intuitive experience built for users that interact with many tabs. Tab Islands: a new, intuitive way of interacting with tabs One of the new features made possible by the improved browser architecture is Tab Islands. Combined with the new Modular Design Principles, this new architecture enables the implementation of new features and allows Opera to continue its differentiation from other Chromium-based browsers. With the Multithreaded Compositor, Opera One is the first major Chromium-based browser that brings its UI to life like never before.
With Opera One, Opera is introducing a similar approach to the browser user interface, implementing a new multithreaded compositor to deliver a faster and smoother user interface layer. The power of the web has been continuously growing, enabling high performance graphics operations on websites without interruptions by other processes. With Opera One, ChatGPT, ChatSonic and the new AI Prompts feature are switched on by default.īeyond creating space for existing generative AI services, the new design is also laying the groundwork for the AI services Opera is planning to unveil in the near future.įirst major browser with Multithreaded Compositor for super smooth UI experience As a result, the browser has a cleaner, decluttered look with plenty of space for future AI-based features and extensions in both the browser sidebar and address bar. The Opera browser is thus beginning its metamorphosis into a browser that will dynamically adapt to the user's needs by bringing only the key features to the foreground: the relevant modules within Opera One will adjust automatically based on context, providing the user with a more liquid and effortless browsing experience.Īs opposed to adding more and more features and highlighting them, every element in Opera One has been closely evaluated for relevance. The new design philosophy, which is being presented today for the first time, will allow Opera to over time build a more powerful and feature-rich browser that is ready for a generative AI-based future. With Opera One, the browser has been redesigned according to Modular Design. Opera has a history of reinventing itself to address the changing needs of its users as well as the evolving nature of the web. Introducing the first implementation of Modular Design
This news from the company comes just weeks after announcing its first generative AI features, including AI Prompts, as well as access to ChatGPT and ChatSonic in the sidebar. Opera One also introduces Tab Islands, a new, more intuitive way of interacting with and managing multiple tabs.
