Brave Browser Sidebar

Brave Browser blocks trackers and ads and provides a new way to support content creators. The browser is built on Chromium but retains its own flair for typical browser features.

The sidebar design solves multiple problems and use cases: automatic tab management, promotion of Brave features while allowing full user control, reducing tabs as users put most-used shortcuts in the sidebar, a place to house non-urgent but retention-driving onboarding tasks, split window view within a browser, vertical tabs, and more.

This was a Figma prototype created for unmoderated testing to collect feedback from potential users.
