nEXT Browser

nEXT is the fastest productivity browser. It is designed from the ground up to be customizable for your workflow. nEXT Browser is the infinitely EXTensible browser.

Powerful Features

Fast tab switching

Switch easily between your open tabs by fuzzy search. If you are looking for http://www.example.com, you could type in ele, exa, epl, and any other valid series of letters. In a future release, typing any semantically related word will give you a fuzzy search of your open tabs and let you quickly find which page you were looking for.

History as a tree

History is represented as a tree that you can traverse. More complex than the “forwards-backwards” abstraction found in other browsers, the tree makes sure you never lose track of where you’ve been.

In the example below, the User performs the following actions:

  1. Starts page Athens
  2. Visits page Ancient Greek
  3. Returns to page Athens
  4. Visits page Classical Athens
  5. Returns to page Athens
  6. Executes forwards keybind in history

It is at this point that a normal browser would NOT be able to navigate you forwards to your visit of Ancient Greek. Instead of erasing your history, nEXT offers smart navigation and prompts the user. Do you wish to go forwards to Ancient Greek or to Classical Athens?
