What's going on here? This looks really interesting, is it related to LiveView Native or something else entirely?

I first read this about 15 years ago and really enjoyed it, then re-read it last year. Great read, but yeah, I don't think climbing Everest is in the cards for me πŸ”οΈ

WIP: Vertical tabs by thenhnn Β· Pull Request #68 Β· imputnet/helium DISCUSSION BELONGS TO #239 Feature requests will be marked as off topic. People subscribe to this PR to follow development, not to get a lot of spam in their inbox. TODO Fix macOS traffic lights ...

Doesn't look like it yet, but there's a PR for it: github.com/imputnet/hel...

The other nice thing about Helium so far is that you can install any extension from the Chrome Web Store: chromewebstore.google.com/search/verti...

But I don't use vertical tabs so that hasn't been an issue for me :)

2025 SO Developer Survey results are out and... wow! Gleam is the second most desired language. It's the first time we appeared in the survey and it's an unexpected result!
Being listed next to

Anyone have suggestions for other browsers? I really love Chrome’s profile management β€” I use this frequently throughout my day to separate my work, personal, and developer bookmarks and sessions. Firefox just couldn’t cut it for this, but I may just have to use it. Open to other suggestions!

Let’s hear from people that use Gleam in production!

β€œWhat’s so great about Gleam isn’t how fast and simple it is to build things –although that is true– but how easy it is to come back later and refactor!”
