2.0.0

I was developing this release since 2019 in my own pace, rewriting the project 3-4 times from scratch, and finally I'm glad to present long awaited Camellia 2.0! 🎉

What's changed

Visually refreshed, but still familiar. Most notable changes of new design:

• Bookmarks have a new chip-style look. They provide better mouse-hover feedback and show loading animation when clicked.
• Clicking folder now opens popup.
• Bookmark grid now adapts to displays of any size. No matter what display you have: 34" ultrawide display or a browser window opened on a half of your laptop display.
• Less buttons in bottom toolbar.
• Completely new modern looking options page.

New features:

• You can specify Unsplash collection as a source of random wallpapers now. By default Camellia shows random photos from our curated Unsplash collection with 100+ handpicked photos.

Removals:

• Removed lots of useless options from the options page.
• Removed omnibox bookmark search.

Internals:

• The extension was completely rewritten: from Vue to React, it uses TypeScript and CSS Modules now.
• The extension is bundled with webpack now (instead of Laravel Mix).
• It was updated to Chrome Manifest V3.
• It requests new mandatory permission favicon instead of non-documented manifest V2-only chrome://favicon/.
• License changed from GNU GPL 3.0 to MIT.
• Enabled performance and error tracking using Sentry.

How to update

Your old Camellia will be updated automatically, but we should wait a bit for Chrome Web Store review process. Please note that your browser will ask for additional permissions, you should approve them to enable the new version.

If you haven't installed it previously, you are welcome to Camellia's Chrome Web Store page.
