Open a tab if the last tab was closed: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/reference-browser/commit/895bb01d2c85b41d41ac15500db37d4511c29485 3. Changing start URL of new tabs: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/reference-browser/commit/2c11d07bdf7084e8eb9c2a0d8f06d3f79d3e6961 4. Hiding menu button: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/reference-browser/commit/6a34c619228f3b1558ea83581d167b2d5f2c0cb7 Best, Sebastian On Fri, May 8, 2020 at 7:15 PM Agi Sferro <asfe...@mozilla.com> wrote: > + Android Componets team who work on the Reference Browser. > > On Fri, May 8, 2020 at 12:22 AM Bob Achgill <bobachg...@hotmail.com> > wrote: > >> Agi, >> >> The [1]: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/reference-browser >> <https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fmozilla-mobile%2Freference-browser&data=02%7C01%7C%7C0525ae4bad48421ca40508d7f1fcd028%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637243940430767742&sdata=l4l%2Bvw%2B1mpS5lQD40oy7SxSNZluKrRYJ7%2B0pZSSKFKo%3D&reserved=0> >> works great!
