Sprocket is an experimental browser based on Chromium's Content API. Supported platforms: Linux (x86_64, ARM), Android (ARM, Aarch64). Currently we have three branches: master, testing and core.
- Core branch contains the relevant code to a minimal browser which can be easily extended with new features.
- Master branch contains extra features, for example toolbar, dialogs, tab support.
- Testing branch contains test specific features, for example developer tools.
