** Introduction
|
||
|
[[https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Proton][Proton]] is Firefox's new design, starting from Firefox 89. \\
|
||
|
[[https://design.firefox.com/photon/][Photon]] is the old design of Firefox which was used until version 88.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Proton's [[#why-proton][overall feel is good]], but there were a few things I [[#why-not-proton][didn't like]] and wanted to improve. \\
|
||
|
That's why this project was born, and Lepton to denote light theme layer.
|
||
|
|
||
|
/Disclaimer:/ It works on *Firefox 89* and above!!

** WHY Not Proton?
|
||
|
However, there are also many flaws.

|
(Photon's design :arrow_up:)
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Is it a tab or a button?
|
||
|
- Where are the menu icons?
|
||
|
- Icons in ActivityStream are too small
|
||
|
- Padding gaps are wide
|
||
|
- :warning: Address bar 3-point menu, screenshot moves to toolbar (can't fix)
