Extensions

July 24th, 2026

After sixteen months of work, Horse 3.3 beta ships preliminary extension support. Three extensions run today: 1Password, uBlock Origin Lite, and Dark Reader.

What Runs Today

1Password

The password manager a lot of people have kept a decade of logins in. It fills, saves, and unlocks in Horse the way it does everywhere else.

uBlock Origin Lite

The careful, low-overhead build of the best-known blocker on the web, rewritten for Manifest v3. It brings its own filter lists with it.

Dark Reader

The one that made bright websites survivable at midnight, with the per-site controls and scheduling that keep a page readable rather than merely dark.


Horse used to ship its own ad blocker and its own dark reader, because it could not run the real ones. From 3.3 those are retired and these do the job instead. Maintaining a second-best copy of someone else’s good work was only ever the workaround.


Saddlepack, the built-in password manager, stays. It keeps passwords on your machine with no cloud and no tier above it, which is a different offer from 1Password rather than a worse one. Use whichever suits you.

How To Get Them

  1. Turn on the Beta channel in Settings.
  2. Relaunch Horse. It comes back on 3.3 beta.
  3. Click the extensions icon and install the ones that are available.

There is no Chrome Web Store support, so those three are what there is to install. Anything else has to be tested here by hand first, because extensions were built for browsers made of tabs and Horse is made of Trails.

Thank You

None of this was built in here. Electron could not host Chrome extensions at all, so the work had to happen upstream, and it did.


Thank you to everyone who backed the Help Extend Horse campaign. You made it the most upvoted pull request in Electron’s history, and that is what got the core team’s attention.


Thank you to Pieter Levels for lending his support when it counted.


Thank you to Sam Maddock, who wrote that pull request and who maintains the packages extension support runs on today. Every Electron app gets this, not just Horse. If you use any of them, please consider sponsoring Sam on GitHub.


The whole sixteen months, and the timeline of what landed when, is kept at Help Extend Horse.

Sencha tea leaves and brewed tea

Sencha tea leaves and brewed tea

Sencha (煎茶) is a type of Japanese ryokucha (緑茶, green tea) which is prepared by infusing the processed whole tea leaves in hot water. This is as opposed to matcha (抹茶), powdered Japanese green tea, where the green tea powder is mixed with hot water and therefore the leaf itself is included in the beverage. Sencha is the most popular tea in Japan.
Types of sencha

The types of sencha are distinguished by when they are harvested. Shincha(新茶, "new tea") represents the first month's harvest of sencha. Basically, it's the same as ichibancha(一番茶, "first tea"), which is the first harvest of the year.

Kabusecha (かぶせ茶) is sencha grown in the shade for about a week before harvest. Asamushi (浅蒸し) is lightly steamed sencha, while fukamushi (深蒸し) is deeply steamed sencha.

Production

Sencha tea is made from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant. The leaves are steamed, rolled, and dried immediately after harvest to prevent oxidation. This process preserves the fresh, grassy flavor that sencha is known for.

The steaming process used in making sencha is what differentiates it from Chinese green teas, which are typically pan-fired. The duration of the steaming process affects the final taste and color of the tea.

Brewing

Sencha is typically brewed at lower temperatures than black tea or oolong tea. The ideal water temperature is usually between 60–80°C (140–176°F), with brewing time ranging from 1 to 2 minutes.

The tea can be brewed multiple times, with each infusion revealing different flavor notes. The first brew tends to be more astringent and fresh, while subsequent brews become milder and sweeter.
