Tab State Persistence

Enable automatic tab state saving and restoration:

browser.EnableJSONState = true;
browser.ThumbnailStoragePath = Path.Combine(
    FileSystem.AppDataDirectory,
    "thumbnails"
);

State includes:

  • All open tabs with URLs and titles
  • Active tab selection
  • Tab thumbnails
  • Last accessed timestamps

Storage locations:

  • Android: /data/data/[app]/files/browser_tabs_state.json
  • iOS: [sandbox]/Documents/browser_tabs_state.json

Bookmark Management

Configure bookmark storage:

browser.BookmarksFilePath = Path.Combine(
    FileSystem.AppDataDirectory,
    "bookmarks.html"
);

browser.DefaultBookmarkTitle = "MyApp";
browser.DefaultBookmarkUrl = "https://myapp.com";

Features:

  • Netscape Bookmark HTML format (cross-browser compatible)
  • Import from Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari
  • Export for backup or sharing
  • Automatic persistence
  • Visual bookmark indicator in toolbar

Browsing History

History is automatically tracked when UnifiedData service is configured. Pages are saved when:

  • AI summary is generated
  • User explicitly saves the page
  • Page content is stored for offline access

History features:

  • Filter by topic or date
  • Search through history
  • View saved summaries offline
  • Delete individual items
  • Clear all history
  • Organized by creation date

Access history through the toolbar history button or programmatically through UnifiedDataService.

Provider Setup Options

OpenAI

builder.AddUnifiedBrowser(
    openAiApiKey: "your-api-key",
    modelName: "gpt-4o-mini"
);

Anthropic Claude

builder.AddUnifiedBrowserWithClaude(
    anthropicApiKey: "your-api-key",
    modelName: "claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022"
);

Together.AI

builder.AddUnifiedBrowserWithTogetherAI(
    togetherApiKey: "your-api-key",
    modelName: "meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3.1-70B-Instruct-Turbo"
);

Local Model

builder.AddUnifiedBrowserWithLocalModel(
    modelPath: "/path/to/model.gguf",
    maxTokens: 512
);

Basic (No AI)

builder.AddUnifiedBrowserBasic();

Custom Provider

builder.AddUnifiedBrowserCustom(
    configureServices: services =>
    {
        // Add your own IRAGService implementation
        services.AddSingleton<IRAGService, MyCustomRAGService>();
    },
    configureBrowser: options =>
    {
        options.DefaultHomeUrl = "https://myapp.com";
    }
);

Dynamic Settings (App-Provided IProviderSettings)

// Register your settings adapter first
builder.Services.AddSingleton<IProviderSettings, MySettingsAdapter>();

// Then add browser with dynamic settings
builder.AddUnifiedBrowserWithDynamicSettings(
    configureBrowser: options =>
    {
        options.DefaultHomeUrl = "https://myapp.com";
    }
);

Runtime Settings (Built-in RuntimeProviderSettings)

// Initial setup with runtime-updateable settings
builder.AddUnifiedBrowserWithRuntimeSettings(
    provider: "openai",
    apiKey: "sk-...",
    modelName: "gpt-4o-mini",
    configureBrowser: options =>
    {
        options.DefaultHomeUrl = "https://myapp.com";
    }
);

// Later, update settings at runtime:
var settings = serviceProvider.GetRequiredService<RuntimeProviderSettings>();

// Update just the API key
await settings.UpdateApiKeyAsync("sk-new-key");

// Or switch to a different provider entirely
await settings.SwitchProviderAsync(
    provider: "anthropic",
    apiKey: "sk-ant-...",
    modelName: "claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022"
);

XAML Instantiation with Lazy Service Resolution

When you create the control in XAML (without DI), services are automatically resolved from the DI container when needed:

<!-- In XAML - services will be resolved lazily -->
<browser:UnifiedBrowserControl
    HomeUrl="https://www.google.com"
    EnableAISummarization="True" />

How it works:

  • When the control is created in XAML, the default constructor is used
  • Services (IRAGService, IUnifiedDataService) are resolved lazily from Application.Current.Handler.MauiContext.Services
  • Resolution happens automatically when AI features are first used (e.g., clicking Summarize)
  • If you registered services via AddUnifiedBrowserWithDynamicSettings() or other methods, they will be available

This means you can:

  1. Configure services in MauiProgram.cs using any AddUnifiedBrowser* method
  2. Create the control in XAML without constructor parameters
  3. AI features will work automatically when the user interacts with them
// In MauiProgram.cs
builder.Services.AddSingleton<IProviderSettings, MySettingsAdapter>();
builder.AddUnifiedBrowserWithDynamicSettings();

// In XAML - just use the control, services resolve automatically
// <browser:UnifiedBrowserControl EnableAISummarization="True" />

Performance Considerations

  1. AI Summarization: On-demand to avoid unnecessary API calls
  2. Link Extraction: Limited to configurable maximum (default 200)
  3. Content Extraction: Configurable token limits for summarization
  4. Tab State: Saved asynchronously to avoid UI blocking
  5. Thumbnails: Captured at configurable resolution, uses SkiaSharp for resizing
  6. History: Indexed for fast search and filtering
  7. WebView Pool: Reuses WebView instances to reduce memory allocation
