Wig

Wig is a GTK web browser that uses WPE WebKit as its rendering engine.

Important

Wig is under active development. Some features may be incomplete or unstable.

Description

Wig is a minimal but fully functional web browser.

It is built around WPEPlatformGTK, which handles fetching, parsing, and rendering web pages, and provides a GTK widget that can be integrated with a minimal amount of code.

The user interface is implemented using GTK and Libadwaita and includes common web browser features such as tab-based navigation.
