What's going on with Project Fugu?
summary
Project Fugu shows concrete browser capabilities now testable via Chrome flags or origin trials with time-limited tokens and a 0.5% usage cutoff. Demos prove the Native File System API (open, edit, save files and edit with persistent handles), the Contact Picker API (pick a contact and dial), Wake Lock (screen stays awake with AbortController), Web Share and Share Target (PWA appears in share sheet), and Shape Detection (face/text/barcode). Support varies — roughly 47.3% global coverage for Web Share — and all features require HTTPS and explicit user permission.
