Press Ctrl+Q at any point and a menu appears listing all your open tabs and most important commands. There's also very good keyboard support via 'Quick Commands'. This works much like a group of buttons on the Windows taskbar: hover your mouse over the tab, thumbnails appear for each of the sites it represents, and you simply click the one you need.

Dragging one tab over another creates a Tab Stack, where a single tab represents multiple sites. Open too many sites and Vivaldi offers a new way to restore order. You can organise them by interest, context, add folders, and more. The Speed Dials page doesn't just display static thumbnails of your favourite sites. There are Downloads, Bookmarks and Contacts panels, too, as well as one for 'Vivaldi Mail' (although a message explains this 'is not ready') and a web panel option, which lets you pin frequently accessed web sites, feeds and other resources for easy access alongside the main browser window. A Notes section allows you to take text notes and screen shots, and add tags to any site.

Browser tabs at the top of the page, address and search bar below, a menu button top-left points to a few useful options (File > Import Data can import your bookmarks, passwords, history, and search engines from IE, Opera and Firefox).Ī tabbed panel on the left gives access to various extras. The end result is streamlined and straightforward to use. The user interface is built with JavaScript and React ('with the help of Node.js, Browserify and a long list of NPM modules', apparently). It's Chromium-based, which ensures decent speeds, even for a Technical Preview. Vivaldi is a new browser from a team lead by Jon S.
