Hi

I am glad announce first initial version of new system browser called
Calypso.
It is implemented from scratch with idea to build model suitable for remote
scenario.
But as result it leads to more important goal: provide clean implementation
of browser which people could understand and evolve.

Calypso supports most features from Nautilus but also miss many of them.
And there are many not nicely looking parts of UI which require more work.
But in same time Calypso provides many new cool features with clean
implementation underhood. I put many things from other smalltalks and old
browsers which I always miss.

I release Calypso in the state where I finish most design decisions which I
think important for project evolution.
Of course there are a lot of things to do and improve. But browser is fully
working. And now it is important to community to participate in project and
make browser great again :). We need escape from Nautilus pasta world.
Please report any ideas/bugs on github page
https://github.com/dionisiydk/Calypso/issues. I already fill it with my
wishes.

Next step I will work on documentation/class comments and I will publish
couple of posts about Calypso internals.

Read more details on my blog

It includes pictures, videos and loading script.

Best regards,
Denis
