13 years after it was first released, Chrome has reached triple-digit releases. Google released it Chrome 100 late last night 29 March 2022, on the stable channel for all supported desktops, Windows, Mac and Linux.
The new version brings a new logo, 28 security enhancements, new features for developers and more.
So we have the Chrome 100 on the Stable channel, Chrome 101 as the new Beta and Chrome 102 as the Canary version.
Google celebrates Chrome 100 with a new icon, more web application tools and more:
For the first time since 2014, Chrome has a new icon. As you can see from the image above, it does not bring any significant change. Google removed some of the shadows for a simpler look.
Στον Chrome για Android, iPhone και iPad η Google προσθέσει μια λειτουργία "Lite Mode" για την εξοικονόμηση δεδομένων.
The new version 100 brings a new multi-screen window placement API to the desktop Chrome desktop. This API helps web applications detect when someone has connected multiple screens to their profile.
The new version has a user-agent that provides less information to websites and a newer, much more safe το "User-Agent Client Hints API". Αυτό το νέο API έχει δημιουργηθεί για λιγότερες ασυμβατότητες με ιστότοπους που μερικές φορές παρουσιάζουν δυσλειτουργίες. Ναι το User agent χρησιμοποιεί πια τριψήφιο αριθμό στην έκδοση του browser:
"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/100.0.4896.60 Safari/537.36"
The new Chrome also brings new DevTools for developers. For additional information see here
