Keep the web in front.
Blanc does not pin a traditional tab strip and toolbar above every page. The Island leaves the web with more of its own room.
the blanc island
One small Island. The whole browser.
Search, tabs, navigation, the current site, and page controls live together—so the page stays in front.
the page gets the room
The controls are close, not constantly present.
See the essentials at a glance.
At rest, the Island shows the tabs in your current group as dots, the site you are on, and a quiet shield. Click the shield to see the connection and change Blanc Blocker for that site.
It notices you coming.
Move toward the Island and it leans your way, rises, and grows a little, easing back as you leave. It follows how close you are rather than switching on at a threshold, so there is no edge to feel—and it stays completely still while another app has focus.
Opening it is a movement, not a cut.
The command bar grows out of the resting Island—starting at its exact size and shape, corners rounding out as it expands—and shrinks back into it when you dismiss. If you have reduce motion turned on, both of these are off entirely.
Search without leaving the Island.
Start typing and Blanc blends your open tabs, favorites, history, and groups with live suggestions from the search engine you chose in Settings. Press Enter to search exactly what you typed.
Open your whole session in one place.
Open the Island to switch tabs, navigate, favorite a page, start a private tab, or use the browser's commands—without moving the page underneath.
