What is BadWolf?

BadWolf is a minimalist and privacy-oriented WebKitGTK browser.

  • Privacy-oriented: No browser-level tracking, multiple ephemeral isolated sessions per new unrelated tabs, JavaScript off by default; blocks ads.
  • Minimalist: Small codebase (~1 500), reuses existing components when available or makes them available;
  • Customizable: WebKitGTK native extensions, Interface customizable through CSS;
  • Powerful & Usable: Stable User-Interface; The common shortcuts are available, no vi-modal edition or single-key shortcuts are used;
  • No annoyances: Dialogs are only used when required (save file, print, …), Javascript popups open in a background tab

BadWolf is using Semantic Versioning with considering that the User-Interface is part of the interface stabilisation. Release branches (ie. 1.0.x) are supported for 6 months for any bug fixes and 2 years for security fixes. Tested and supported platforms

OS: */Linux, NetBSD, OpenBSD, FreeBSD CPU Architectures: x86_64/amd64, x86(_32), armv7hf, armv8+/aarch64 Windowing: Wayland, X11

Similar systems should work, feel free to reports tests/bugs and volunteer on testing before releases are published. Libre Systems where WebKitGTK is up-to-date (2.32.0+) are the target, proprietary systems (Windows, MacOS, Oracle Solaris, …) are unsupported.
