derp help
Documentation for the features derp adds on top of Firefox.
Getting started
Finding things
Command palette
Press F2 and start typing to run almost anything without hunting through menus.
Working without the address bar
The address bar can be hidden entirely; double-clicking a tab is how you navigate instead.
Tabs
Tab stacks
Two levels of tabs: a stack is one chip in the tab strip, and its tabs appear in a second bar underneath.
Workspaces
Separate sets of tabs you switch between, each remembering its own tabs.
Split view
Two or more pages side by side inside a single tab.
Interface
Start page
The page new tabs open on: your sites, a clock, a search box and a wallpaper.
The Hub
derp's own settings, separate from Firefox's preferences.
Share mode
Blanks the parts of the window that would give away more than you meant to share.
Zen mode
Retracts the toolbars and the status bar so only the page is left.
Panel sidebar
A sidebar for web panels, notes and extensions, kept beside the page rather than over it.
Input
Mouse gestures
Hold the right mouse button and draw to run a command.
Keyboard shortcuts
The shortcuts derp adds on top of Firefox's, and how to change them.
Extras
Containers
Keeps sites in separate compartments so their cookies and logins cannot see each other.
Notes
A notepad that lives in the sidebar, so it is beside the page rather than in another window.
Profiles
Separate browsers on one machine, each with its own tabs, extensions and history.
QR codes
Turns the page you are on into a QR code to pick up on a phone.
Tab bar layout
Where the tabs go and how much room they take.
Themes and appearance
Light, dark and the compact look derp ships with.
Web apps
Installs a site as a standalone desktop application.
Extensions and Manifest V2
derp runs Manifest V2 extensions, so the full uBlock Origin works rather than the reduced Lite version.
