Hexavalent

A Chromium downstream project

NOTE:

  • THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS PROJECT.
  • THE CURRENT CODEBASE DOES NOT AT ALL REFLECT THE INTENDED GOAL OF IT IN ITS CURRENT STATE.
  • KEEP IT LOWKEY.

Why was this made?

  • Linux distributions can be a mess. They don't package it properly.
  • Existing packages are slow to update.
  • To provide a reference for people who want to package Chromium.
  • No "untouched" chromium with auto updates exists for Windows.

Aims

  • Use Clang/LLVM to compile Chromium as upstream intends.
  • Use official builds only.
  • Compile with modern security features that upstream provides.
  • Be easy to maintain, clean, quick and efficient.
  • Fast updates — no more than 4 days lag time ideally.
  • Leverage the Windows hypervisor platform on Windows.
