+ <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 & 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
+ Desktop Icons extension has been released. This extension brings the
+ traditional desktop icons experience back for users and distributions.</p>

+ <p>GNOME Web has been enhanced with a new automation mode. This allows the
+ application to be controlled by <a href="https://w3c.github.io/webdriver/">
+ 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>

+ <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>
