making a web browser

In the face of recent changes in Firefox some anons were asking for a /g/'s perfect web browser, we have collected here the most wanted and plan on continuing with the creation.

is this ironic shilling or unironic shilling?

They'll bikeshed the logo and implementation language and one month later the thing will die due to namefag drama.

Writen in C.

Turdware here we come!

/g/'s perfect web browser

How does perfection fit there according to you?

most of those ``features'' are bloat.

A modern links clone would actually be great.
Firefox/Chrome millions of lines of Sepples are unsustainable.

C

Make it in Rust instead

dangerous program

>>9
There's nothing there but links2

we have a teknik git too https://git.teknik.io/eti/netrunner
will add changes to the README.md soon
don't hesitate forking, sending pull requests etc

>>12
Sorry OP, but cudder-sama is already busy with her own browser here

>>12
There is a TODO list not in the README:
1. Browse the links2 source code (you can use Ctags or GNU GLOBAL for tagging functions and files).
2. Expose API and give (scripting) access to just about everything.
3. Put every accessed interface in a scriptable file.
4. Give control over the DOM, use folders for each site to be manually edited (use a hierarchical structure to cover subsites).
5. Implement a link grabber for every link available to be parsed by the scripting interface.

The plan is to leave last the implementation of the javascript engine.

>>14
will there be XMPP support?

>>13
+1 and with actual CSS support (enough to pass Acid2).

>>16
How close are you from passing Acid2?

>>16
8 heads are better than 1

I'm writing an IceFox clone in m68k machine code. Which 2hus should I ask to assist me?

>>19
Parsse

>>18
Better at what, making lots of noise on textboards and imageboards?

>>21
Programming

>>22

lol

if (parse_url(url, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, &d, NULL, NULL)) return NULL;

That was

cudder

quality!

>>24
U MENA WINDOWS QUALITY

>>25
Not enough typedefs.

>>24,26
Not enough regex. Hand rolled string code is basically hotbed for exploits, bugs and memory leaks.
Use some sane string/regex library

I summon Cudder.

>>27

regex
sane

that's a contradiction

/g/ is even bigger joke than Cudder.

>>30
/g/ is all joke and no action

>>31
all joke and no punchline*

/prog/ is all dubs and no trips!

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT: We already have a html parser working!
Also new website https://retrotech.eu/netrunner/

>>34
I can't see the parser

Some guy is already working on the framebuffer

The IRC on the OP is wrong, they went to #/g/netrunner on Rizon

more like NEETrunner

Sad!

desired features in a web browser:

a blacklist (addresses it doesn't send requests to)

javascript disabled by default

you can set your own scripts to load instead in the website

you can disable elements permanently, for that website domain or page

you can substitute an element for another permanently (and that includes scripts) in a wysiwyg way

you can customize your home page, with the 'tiles' of quick access chosen by you, instead of decided by an algorithm

it 'counts' the scripts in a website (loaded with href or inline) and lets you enable them one by one (it saves the signature of each with a element selector plus domain and path)

you can edit these with an editor (say, just a single line) and save, instead of needing to create a userscript

css animations and other time-dependent css disabled by default, but can be enabled

css inline and externally loaded css editable similarly to js (and so is the same for all other elements you can name)

more radically, the functionality of a webpage can be extended with a different language than javascript, to the user's choosing. the parsed html tree is fed to the userscript and held in the variable 'document', even before loading in the browser, and the userscript can choose what to dispatch to the usual behavior and what to alter in content or prevent usual behavior and dispatch differently
