Recent highlights¶

Restored vertical line navigation with Up and Down arrow keys when horizontal scrolling is enabled in SyntaxHighlightedTextEditor
Trapped directional arrow keys at document boundaries to prevent accidental focus escape to outside UI controls
Added support for Shift-based selection expansion during manual vertical line traversal

Scoped ABI-exposed dependencies as api in published POM and Gradle module metadata
Restarted highlighting effects dynamically when the active HighlightEngine changes or is recreated
Added Fira Code custom font and programming ligature showcase to the sample app
Upgraded WebKit to 1.18.0 and fixed documentation code snippets

Formalized explicit WebView lifecycle state machine with generation tracking to prevent destruction races
Handled WebView renderer process crashes (onRenderProcessGone) with auto-recreation and typed exceptions
Offloaded custom theme resolution from Main thread during initial composition with safe fallbacks and typed errors
Unified build-time and runtime CSS theme parser behavior for hex colors, font styles, and !important
Consolidated sample app demo tabs into 10 focused hubs with dedicated README Quick Start validation tab

Hardened internal WebView security with disabled file/content access, blocked outbound network requests, and Content Security Policy enforcement
Preserved horizontal scroll state across screen rotation and LazyColumn recycling in code viewers
Removed broad consumer R8 keep rules to allow downstream apps to dead-code eliminate unused library components
