Completed Phase 1 high priority task:
Interactive Features:
- Add 'f' keyboard shortcut for forward navigation
- Forward button in UI now fully functional
- Works in tandem with Backspace (back) navigation
- Only enabled when browser can go forward
Documentation:
- Updated KEYBOARD.md with 'f' key
- Updated README.md keyboard shortcuts
- Updated STATUS.md to reflect completion
- Updated help text in main.cpp
Keyboard shortcuts:
- Backspace: Go back
- f: Go forward
- Both check navigation state before allowing action
The browser now has complete bidirectional navigation! ✅
Updated development status to v0.2.0-alpha with all interactive
features now working:
✅ Content scrolling (j/k, g/G, Space/b)
✅ Link navigation (Tab, numbers, Enter)
✅ Address bar ('o' to open)
✅ Back navigation (Backspace)
✅ Refresh (r/F5)
✅ Real-time status display
The browser is now fully usable for interactive web browsing!
See KEYBOARD.md for complete keyboard shortcuts.
Added STATUS.md documenting:
- Working features (HTTP, HTML parsing, rendering, browser engine)
- Known limitations (UI components not yet implemented)
- Next steps roadmap (scrolling, link navigation, bookmarks, etc.)
- Test results showing successful browsing
The core engine is fully functional - main work remaining is
implementing the interactive UI components.
