Aph 0.3.0

Unsigned builds with no auto-update
yet; each release is a manual re-download.

  • Aph version: 0.3.0
  • Firefox base: 157.0 (recorded from application.ini at build time)
  • Profiles: Linux ~/.config/aph/profile (daily install) ·
    Windows %APPDATA%\Aph\profile (seed-once user.js + userChrome.css + userContent.css)

What's new in 0.3.0

Command palette (Ctrl+K)

  • Bold Raycast-style restyle with no open-flash-reopen
    stutter, fuzzy archive search, and frecency ranking.
  • Workspace icon picker is reachable from the palette and
    from the dock menu.

Settings, welcome & archive

  • Settings page is editable in place; welcome page has a
    new hero tour (both re-openable from the Aph menu and
    the palette).
  • Archive search is fuzzy with workspace + container
    restore and staleness control intact.

Workspaces

  • Ten new workspace marks (research to fitness) with Lucide
    icons; top-left pill renames on left-click and opens the
    icon picker on right-click.
  • Workspace switch now staggers tab arrival (calm cascade
    for the first tabs, flat fade beyond) and respects
    reduced-motion.
  • Shared aph-tokens.css theme payload for palette,
    settings, welcome, and archive.

Upstream robustness

  • Drift detector pins every stock selector/token/pref Aph
    depends on against the packaged Firefox (fails loud on
    upstream removal).

Heads-up upgrading from 0.2.x

  • No profile migration, no shortcut changes — drop-in
    re-download over 0.2.0.
  • For the 0.1.x notes (profile move, Alt+1..9 shortcut,
    tree-style tabs removal), see the 0.2.0 release.

Install

  • Linux AppImage: chmod +x aph-x86_64.AppImage && ./aph-x86_64.AppImage
  • Linux Flatpak: flatpak install aph-x86_64.flatpak
  • Windows: run Aph-Setup-*.exe (per-user, no admin needed), or
    extract aph-win64-portable.zip anywhere and run aph.bat
