Important
Repository Archived: This repository is archived and no longer under active development. The OTF Web Browser is now built on our own custom browser engine (with a Rust backend), developed in the successor repository. Check browser.opentechf.org for the current status. This archive is retained for historical reference only — do not submit issues or PRs here, and expect no further releases.
Warning
Experimental Project: This browser is in early development. Features, APIs, and stability are subject to significant changes.
You can download the latest version of OTF Web Browser for your platform from our GitHub Releases page.
| Platform | Release | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Linux (x64) | Latest Tarball | ✅ Stable |
| Windows (x64) | TBD | 🚧 In Progress |
| macOS | TBD | 🚧 In Progress |
Important
Chromium sandbox status: the .deb/.rpm packages and the install script enable the full Chromium sandbox automatically (SUID chrome-sandbox helper). The AppImage runs with the sandbox disabled (--no-sandbox) because AppImages cannot ship a SUID helper — prefer the packages, or extract the tarball and run sudo chown root:root chrome-sandbox && sudo chmod 4755 chrome-sandbox next to the binary. The in-progress Windows builds currently run without the Chromium sandbox (cef_sandbox.lib is not yet linked).
Development changes are tracked in CHANGELOG.md. Keep new work in the Unreleased section until bun run release cuts a version, and update that section as part of each completed feature, fix, or notable behavior change.
Prerequisites:
- CMake (3.21+)
- Ninja (Build system)
- GCC 14+ (C++20 support)
- Bun (for UI development)
bun run setupTo start the UI development server (with HMR) and launch the browser automatically:
bun run devWe use Ninja for high-performance builds. To build the project for production:
bun run build:uibun run build:cpp- MVP
- Automated CI/CD Release Pipeline
- Windows (x64) Support
- macOS (Universal) Support
