Next is the only browser that allows infinite customization.

Besides, writing new commands or extensions is doable live, as the browser runs.

What is Nyxt browser?

Nyxt is a new type of web browser for power users. It's built from the ground-up to be completely customizable. Out of the box Nyxt ships with tens of features that allow you to quickly analayze, navigate, and extract information from the Internet.

Jump headings. Navigate large documents with ease. Fuzzily search through headings.

Map selection. Utilize the power of running commands against multiple objects to avoid repeating yourself. In the example below, we select and close all buffers that match the string "ele".

Execute commands easily. Fuzzy search relevant commands to instantly run them. No more digging through menus.

Instantly switch buffers. Use fuzzy search to instantly switch between buffers. No more hunting!

Powerful link hinting. Use link hinting to quickly jump around. Jump to a link by URL, title, or shortcut.

Built-in programmability. Use the built-in REPL to program Nyxt. Run short scripts, and try out new workflows. Everything in Nyxt is fully extensible and modifiable.

Smart bookmark search. Use compound queries with AND and OR to search your tagged bookmarks.

Customizable autofills. Use autofills to fill in forms. Autofills can be functions or plain strings. In the case of functions, you can make them intelligent. For example, you may want an autofill to fill in the current date.

Clipboard history. Anything you copy is remembered so that you can re-paste it at any time. No more looking for the 'last thing' you pasted!

Lossless tree history. A tree based history ensures that you never lose track of where you've been. All pages you've visited are stored in a tree that you can traverse and search. No more losing items in your history.
