Tab islands are automatically created to keep tabs together within the same browsing context. In the new, reinvented version of Opera, tab islands are the first manifestation of its Modular Design: they are clearly distinguishable in the browser UX, marked by separate colors and clear island borders. As you browse and more tab islands are created, you can easily distinguish the topics you were focusing on and switch between them.

Do you have a bunch of Google Docs you use for work? They, too, can get a tab island of their own.

Are you looking for the best place for lunch? The tabs with the menus, locations, and restaurant details will open in a dedicated tab island. Opera One’s new Tab Islands feature delivers a smooth and intuitive experience that can help you stay on task without forcing you to change your habits. That’s why we thought up a groundbreaking solution for you: Tab Islands. With so many open, we know how difficult it can be to jump between tasks and stay productive. Together with Modular Design, this new architecture allows us to implement exciting new features that differentiate ours from other Chromium-based browsers – among them, Tab Islands.Ī survey of you, our users, told us how overwhelmed you are by the messiness of so many open tabs, and that you wish web browsers would do more to help manage them. What is it exactly, and why does it make your browsing experience better? The compositor thread delivers a faster and smoother user interface layer, which enables high performance graphics operations without interruption from other processes. The liquid navigation and Modular Design are made possible by our new Multithreaded Compositor, which Opera is the first among the major Chromium-based browsers to introduce. Opera One will also harness powerful new AI-based features, which we’ll be adding in the near future. Automatically adjusted based on context, Modular Design will provide you with a more liquid and effortless browsing experience. While we’re starting with an early access developer build now, the browser will adapt to your needs, bringing only key features and relevant modules to the foreground when and where you need them. Opera One is a big step in that direction, particularly with the adoption of a new Modular Design philosophy. Opera has a long history of reinventing itself and its products to adapt to the evolving nature of the web.
