== Description: ==
Ebrowser is electron/chromium based minimal browser working on GNU/Linux
operating system.

Ebrowser is programmed in javascript and html.

- lightweight (less than 20k bytes) without bundled electron.
- much less memory footprint than edge/chrome browser and highly performant.
- keyboard friendly with vim-style keymaps and command line support in address
bar.
- [global redirection](https://uweb.surge.sh/en/redirect/index.html#) to
bypass censorship.
- user scripts at will. Ex. pressing "tr" to translate the page (need
mapkeys.json config).
- customizable.




== Other Software Required: ==
electron: MIT license, https://github.com/electron/electron


== Other Comments: ==
Savannah will be used as primary hosting since github is not accessible in
many areas.

The uweb browser referred in the README is the android version of ebrowser.
uweb browser is also free and runs on AOSP, the Android Open Source Project.
Electron can not be run on android, thus uweb has other components than
ebrowser and those components are also free and has no dependency on non-free
technology.
