It’s been quiet here for a while, but we’ve been busy working on a number of features for Bear Web.
Load (or refresh) [https://web.bear.app](https://web.bear.app) to enjoy:
**Headline features**
- **Edit Tag panel** - new contextual panel with icon picker, accessible from the sidebar.
- **Tag rename** - rename a tag from the edit panel; merges into an existing tag if the new name collides.
- **Tagcon search** — tagcon search field in the edit-tag panel.
- **Tag delete** - Delete Tag context menu action with cascade delete of descendants and reference cleanup from notes.
- **App icon picker** - choose from multiple app icons (from the settings panel, top-left menu).
**Quality-of-life**
- **Shortcuts cheatsheet** — toggle with `?` (or the `Keyboard Shortcuts` item in the top-left menu)

This was definitely a missing piece and it seems to work really well!
Just a minor note: as I pointed out in the past regarding scrollbars, on Chrome/Linux the default browser ones are still visible and a bit clunky. It’s nothing urgent, but it would be great to have a lighter, custom scrollbar eventually.

Lovely updates. Bear Web is shaping up really nicely, I am amazed by how close to parity with the native app it’s getting. Now we just need a stats/ToC/backlinks panel… 😉

Definitely, the scrollbars can be improved. I renewed my yearly sub today because I was able to use bear over the web when I have to use a windows machine.

Lots of good work done here. Finally a major change: Image sync and download is working so well!!. Please keep it working nicely. I migrated from Obsidian because I use Bear for my work too. And its so lovely. The UX is so pleasing. Its simple to use. I wanted to use it for my personal use too and migrated. The sync was the gap. Now its working

We hear you 🙂
We’ll take another look at the scrollbars once we’re done with the other major features.

The stats/ToC/backlinks panel is in the making. We have to solve a few performance issues with that one first, so I’m not making any promises 😉
