There are more features planned. Once it’s feature-complete, it will even have adblocking and KeePassXC integration.
However, as I am a student with a few mental health issues, development is slow. I don’t expect the browser to be “finished” for another year at least.
Ah, I am using WebKitGTK.
Currently version 4.1, though, as 6.0 is not supported on GTK3, and upgrading the project to GTK4 would possibly require a complete rewrite.
How do you do security patches?
Recompile with updated libraries. There’s probably a better way, but it’s further down the list. This thing doesn’t even support downloads yet.
I hate, hate, HATE GTK.
Sorry, it’s visceral, can’t stand using GTK apps, but really hate the framework, it is just so badly hacked together, and QT spoiled me forever.
Need to build one again, this time with a python wrapper, wrote one for VLC and it’s spoiled me too.
Is it a “traditional” web browser or yet another Gnome header bar app?
i3 and homemade web browser - this guy is legit
Looks good
Thanks!
Probably too bare bones for what I would look in a web browser, though. Still refreshing to see someone with a WebKitGTK browser not mimic Gnome Web.

All power to you. Take your time and feel free to announce it properly to the whenever you’re ready.
My completely non representative opinion is that a WebKitGTK browser that works well and feels fine across desktops is a niche looking to be filled.
