Highlights
New
- Choose your default browsing engine and add, edit or remove website engine rules in Settings. Chromium is recommended, while WebKit offers native handling and FairPlay video.
Improved
- WebKit sessions leave Chromium unloaded until you open a Chromium website or extension. Once loaded, it stays ready until you quit Crest.
- The default Mac download includes Chromium and WebKit, with a separate WebKit build available. Each build keeps its own update channel.
- The final experimental update moves your update preference to Development so future Crest updates continue there.
Fixed
- Extensions can move, resize and restore Crest windows using their normal window controls.
This is the final experimental update. Installing it switches updates to Development, where future releases continue after this branch merges into main.
