We are thrilled to announce the first official release of Valorex Browser (v0.1.0) — an ultra-fast, lightweight, memory-safe, and privacy-respecting native desktop web browser engineered in Rust.

يسعدنا إطلاق الإصدار الرسمي الأول من متصفح فالوركس (v0.1.0) — متصفح الويب المكتبي الأصيل فائق السرعة وخفيف الوزن والمبني بالكامل بلغة رست (Rust) ليوفر أعلى مستويات الأمان والأداء مع دعم متكامل للغة العربية.

✨ Highlights & Features (أبرز المميزات في هذا الإصدار)

  1. Ultra-Fast Native Performance (أداء فائق واستجرار منعدم للذاكرة):

    • Pure compiled native binary (~7.9MB stripped, 3.6MB compressed).
    • Consumes only 25–40MB RAM at idle — up to 10x less memory than Chromium and Electron-based apps.
    • Cold startup in under 120 milliseconds.
  2. Valorex Shield (درع فالوركس لحجب الإعلانات والتتبع):

    • Direct integration with the official Brave adblock-rust rule engine.
    • Real-time blocking of intrusive ads, trackers, and crypto miners before network sockets open.
    • Automated background updates for EasyList and EasyPrivacy.
    • Live telemetry badge showing blocked tracker counts per tab and globally.
  3. Modern Chrome CSD & Tab Strip (شريط نافذة متكامل وألسنة متطورة):

    • Pixel-perfect Client-Side Decorations (CSD) with seamless GTK drag-to-move, maximize double-click, and window controls.
    • Advanced tab lifecycle: tab pinning, tab duplication, tab reordering, and instant closed tab restoration (Ctrl+Shift+T).
    • Smooth horizontal mouse-wheel scrolling with RTL/LTR directional compensation.
  4. Embedded SQLite WAL Storage (محرك تخزين محلي عالي الأداء):

    • Embedded SQLite database running in Write-Ahead Logging (WAL) mode for concurrent sub-millisecond queries.
    • Persistent browsing history, hierarchical bookmarks, and active download tracking.
  5. 1-Click Browser Data Migration (استيراد البيانات بنقرة واحدة):

    • Direct profile import from Google Chrome, Brave, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, and Chromium without requiring manual file export.
  6. Pure BiDi RTL/LTR Symmetry (تناظر ثنائي الاتجاه ودعم عربي أصيل):

    • Native Arabic & English interface built with CSS logical properties.
    • Strict Unicode bidirectional isolation on URLs, filenames, and paths to prevent text distortion.
    • Zero emojis in UI components — all graphics are clean, crisp SVG vectors.
  7. Gemini AI Copilot Integration (مساعد Gemini الذكي):

    • Omnibox quick search and smart text-selection floating bubble for immediate search, copy, and AI assistance.
