epiphany

Via Ubuntu Software Center, the user is able to install Epiphany, lightweight, simplistic yet effective web-browser.

Starting months ago, Epiphany has been (and it is) subjected to a serious redesign process, gradually receiving both under-the-hood changes and visual refinements, including sped-dial like view, monochrome navigation icons, improved fullscreen mode, etc, basically, relevant enhancements.

Epiphany is a lightweight yet effective web-browser, allowing users to enjoy a modern web experience, while retaining simplicity and ease-of-use.

Months ago, GNOME developers started a serious work on refreshing Epiphany Web Browser (labeled now as both Web and Epiphany), in the sense of rewriting numerous "internal" components, as well as implementing numerous UI changes, changes essentially aimed at visually aligning Epiphany to GNOME design's current directions.

Months ago, the GNOME developers have started a serious work on refining numerous applications, in the sense of improving, along with the introduction of new features, their user interface, usually via a minimalistic, clean pattern with light colors, decreased amount of buttons, heavy usage of monochrome icons, etc.

Epiphany web-browser is targeted, at the moment, for a GNOME "branding", meaning the application has been renamed to Web and features a completely new interface and the new GNOME design (work in progress).

It seems that not only the interface and the user interactions are being revamped, but also new interesting additions are to probably land in Epiphany, additions that probably will attract a solid number of new users due to the web-apps oriented Internet "fashion".

Epiphany web-browser is in a transition process at the moment, that is, when completed, to offer a fancy, modern and completely redesigned web-browser.

Days ago, we presented Epiphany 3.3.4, rebranded as Web, first iterations that features the new GNOME design approach, first new Web with monochrome icons, animated thin progressbar, Chromium-like menus, etc.

According to various GNOME developers, Epiphany web-browser is to be transformed and radically changed into a modern UI, design that is to follow GNOME's new design direction.

The latest version of Epiphany, 3.3.4 version, is definitely a bold step towards the above goals, marking the first iteration that features the new UI.

Simplicity is an attribute applied to the top part, at the moment, the navigation, refresh and accessing the menu are available via four small monochrome icons (they don't follow one's icon theme).
