Chrome 102 it is a new version of Google’s browser and that of much of the civilized world, despite being used by the mega-corporation to tie employees to its products and services, while suppressing privacy to make the most of this task. But it is also the most powerful and advanced browser today, whose basis, Chromium, is understood to be the same for its derivatives.

In this case, Chrome 102 may not be a particularly attractive release given the news it brings, although it’s a bit of a lot, but it’s important to focus on it, given the place on the board and that news. directly from Chromia, so one of its derivatives could take over one or more of them.

When we go into the cool Chrome 102 face to face with the average web browser user on a PC, we find…

For keyboard lovers, easy card management in Chrome 102 with new shortcuts that let you quickly change the order of open tabs in the foreground, although it’s a little different from whether it’s done on Windows, Mac, or Linux:

• In Windows, this is done using “Ctrl + Shift + page up or down” (arrow keys)
• On Linux and Mac using “Ctrl + Shift + Fn + page up or down”.

This way you can move the foreground tab left or right. There is nothing to write about home, but …

Chrome 102 introduces another tab and window management feature that makes it easy to “grab” a tab and control it from a separate window. This sounds weird, but it would be a way to improve the management of presentations through the browser. The function is still half done, but a sample page has been implemented from which the function can be tested.

Another interesting news that Chrome 102 brings us is improved integration of installed web applicationsYou know, progressive web applications or PWAs that are evolving more slowly than expected, are already well on their way to becoming world-class citizens of every desktop environment that’s worth it.

In this regard, Google has always had in mind the improvement of its capabilities, and for a year now it has been focusing specifically on integration with the desktop PC in order for these web applications to work and be treated as the native applications in question. Chrome 102 seems to have taken a new step in this direction.

Therefore, installed web applications will behave as compatible file type options, meaning that just like when you open a text document, it will run with the application assigned as the default, but the system also contains a list of alternatives that can be used to open that document. document … a compatible web application will appear in the list of alternatives, which will be able to use the web application as the default. At least the theory.

The web application experience is also better thanks to the new navigation API, which will make the transition between web applications smoother. It’s not practical at all, but it all adds up. Add to that the performance optimizations and security patches that Chrome 102 receives, otherwise the mandatory update that you’ve most likely already received without realizing it.
