Floorp Browser Gets a Yandex-Inspired Address Bar Mod

Floorp, the Firefox-based web browser known for its performance and extensive customization options, just got a cool new mod. A user named aminought has ported their address bar customization from Vivaldi, giving Floorp users an address bar experience similar to that of Yandex Browser.

What's the Big Deal?

The Yandex Browser's address bar is known for being informative and functional. This mod brings that functionality to Floorp, enhancing the browsing experience for those who prefer a cleaner and more practical address bar.

Features of the Floorp Yandex-Style Address Bar Mod

The mod, available on GitHub, boasts the following features:

• Informative Display: Provides a clear and concise view of the current website's URL and security status.
• Functional Design: Streamlines common address bar actions.
• Customizable Button Color: Adapts to the favicon color of the website (though currently experiencing implementation issues within Floorp itself).

Recent Updates

The mod has already received an update, with the following improvements:

• Brighter Button: Improved visibility.
• Favicon-Based Color Customization: An attempt to dynamically change the button color based on the site's favicon (feature currently not fully functional due to underlying Floorp issues).
