Watching this as I’m recompiling dev-qt/qtwebengine for the 3rd time
It’s Chromium’s non-Google cousin.
If that piques your interest, be aware that it’s mostly Apple’s baby.
And to swing back positive again, it’s open-source because Apple didn’t create it in the first place and they’re bound by GPL to keep it that way.
Finally, a useful fun fact: WebKit GTK often comes with a MiniBrowser
program that is a bare-bones web browser wrapped around the engine.
It isn’t symlinked in /usr/bin
or anywhere like that, but it does work as an emergency secondary browser if something breaks your main one.
It’s usually found somewhere like /usr/lib/{OS type}/webkitgtk-{version}/MiniBrowser
On my machine it’s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/webkit2gtk-4.1/MiniBrowser
haven’t compiled it in like months bc it keeps erroring out lol
please tell me you use ccache tho
Gentoo? This is just emacs life
Do you have the source for the original video? A mechanic friend would love this but I don’t want to spend 10 minutes explaining what Gentoo is.
Edit: found a different supercut https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oxr6Zv5GRkc
