- plugin: *.plugin.js with the store header and start/stop on api.scope, storage, observe,
onKey, the UI kit (toast with action, ui.h settings dialog) and api.theme/--wb-* vars;
--ts makes a TypeScript project typed by the waybetter package (build keeps the header first)
- theme: JSON with "$schema" -> theme.schema.json, palette derived like themeFromColors,
font roles (family, tweet), presets
- app: Tauri 2 + waybetter-host + runtime + shell models: SiteSpec, SiteAdapter, shell/tab-chrome/
site-tab capabilities, tabs_sync, plugin store, a site-only command; presets for youtube.com,
kick.com, twitch.tv with placeholder selectors; host crate via submodule, path or git
- tests generate into temp dirs: headers via parse_meta (new plugin_meta example), plugin code
against createCorePluginApi's members, themes against the schema, app TS with tsc against the
built package, app Rust with cargo metadata/check/test
- wired into bun run check (typecheck incl. checkJs, build:packages, test:create) and pack:check
tauri 2 (runtime-wry build_gtk with the window's GtkBox) packs every child
webview into the window box, stacked and with set_position/set_size ignored,
so tab webviews landed under the shell instead of over their panes.
place_child/attach_shell move them into a GtkOverlay (shell as base layer)
and allocate each at its exact rect via get-child-position; placed_rect
reports the placement (GTK children have no position). Windows/macOS keep
set_position/set_size.
set_tab_visible shows/hides a tab webview and sets
ICoreWebView2_19::SetMemoryUsageTargetLevel (LOW when hidden, NORMAL when
shown). Hidden tabs keep running; the browser trims their working set.
Site-agnostic parts of the X app, behind a small site adapter:
- crates/waybetter-host: webview-label security policy and tab rect
clamp, account profiles with native-owned accounts (AccountRules),
plugin store with bundled-plugin upgrades (PluginHost), signed
data-only hotfix channel, update scheduling and crash handshake, tab
payloads/link routing/tab-chrome validation, and (feature "tauri")
webview helpers and the Windows system menu.
- packages/runtime: DOM hub, request hub, plugin API core, OKLab theme
color model, split-view rail hiding, link routing and account
reporting, each configured by a SiteAdapter.
- packages/shell: address bar, pane, link-drop, profile, palette and
update-chip models, and window controls with the Tauri API injected.
Tests moved/adapted from the app: 45 Rust (headless), 40 TypeScript.
