Two things the shipped 0.5.0 got wrong:
- `.empty { display: flex }` overrode the plain `[hidden]` attribute the
init flow sets after the image draws, so the "Loading capture…" pill
stayed visible on top of the finished capture. Global rule
`[hidden] { display: none !important }` takes it out.
- Tool bar was left-aligned; older editor iterations grouped the drawing
tools / swatches / widths / undo-redo in the centre of the bar, which
read better in a narrow sidebar. Adds `.toolbar { justify-content: center }`;
the topbar's back / max / sound / name / save / copy stay edge-anchored.
Version bump so the OTA update endpoint picks it up on the next tick.
The browser — the consumer face of the stack. Native .bch support with the
resolver built in, so a user installs one app instead of modifying their
operating system. Named for the thread through the labyrinth: the chain is the
thread.
Scope
Electron shell (Chromium engine, no forking): tabs, address bar, history.
In-process .bch resolution — no system daemon, no NRPT, no OS
trust-store changes; reuses bns.js from the BNS repo as a library.
Record handling: h render, ip connect, p/s3 via in-app gateway,
u redirect.
TLS via cert-verify hook (Electron setCertificateVerifyProc) against the
BNS root / on-chain tls fingerprints — no OS store touched.
Provenance indicator: shows whether a page came from the chain / Sia / a
direct server, with NFT category and record type — the decentralized padlock.
Status: not started
Build it in its own session/repo. The ready-to-paste brief is
BROWSER-PROMPT.md (a reference copy in this folder; canonical source is
D:\Dev\NameCoin\BROWSER-PROMPT.md — if they diverge, NameCoin wins). It points
here and reuses the resolver core. theseus.bch is registered and should
eventually serve the browser's own homepage over the protocol it implements.
