   only possible due to the amazing work of local volunteers. This year’s event
   was held in Almería, Spain, and was a big success. Thank you, Team Almería!</p>

+    <p>GNOME &gnomeversion; features a refreshed visual style, including the
+    user interface, the icons and the desktop itself. The user interface is
+    generally more vibrant, using a richer color palette than before. Buttons
+    and switches are improved too, giving them a more modern look &amp; feel.</p>
+    <p>GNOME applications in &gnomeversion; feature a modernized icon now too!
+    Using the same color palette as the user interface, application icons have
+    been redesigned from the ground up.</p>
+    <p>Core GNOME applications have removed the "application menu", moving the
+    contents to a primary menu located within the application window, where
+    appropriate.</p>
+    <p>User images are now consistent across the desktop, represented as a circle.
+    When an image is not provided by the user, a colored circle with the user's
+    initials is automatically created.</p>
+    <p>These changes come together to give GNOME &gnomeversion; a fresh and
+    approachable appearance.</p>

+    <title>Desktop</title>
+    <p>Several improvements to foundation data structures in the GNOME Desktop
+    led to noticable framerate improvements. This results in a faster, snappier
+    feel to the animations, icons and top "shell" panel.</p>
+    <p>The on-screen keyboard received another round of improvements this cycle.
+    It now supports an Emoji chooser!</p>

+    <p>While technically not part of GNOME core, nor the Files application, the

+    <p>GNOME Web has been enhanced with a new automation mode. This allows the

+    WebDriver</a>.</p>
+    <p>Reader mode has been enhanced as well. It now features a set of customizable
+    preferences and an improved style.</p>
+    <p>Touchpad users can now take advantage of more gestures when browsing. For
+    example, swipe left or right to go back or forward through browsing history.</p>

+  <section id="control-center">
+    <title>Settings</title>
+    <p>Settings features a new "Application Permission" panel. This panel shows
+    resources and permissions for various applications, including installed
+    Flatpak applications. Users are given the option to grant permission to
+    certain resources when requested by the application.</p>
+    <p>The Sound settings has been redesigned to support a vertical layout and
+    a more intuitive placement of options.</p>
+    <p>The Night Light color temperature can now be adjusted for a warmer or

+    both the guest and host support it. This results in much better performance
+    of graphics-intensive guest applications like games and video editors.</p>
