Breach

This is a great idea. I've wanted to build something like this for a while, but never got around to it. I think people here are missing the point. Firefox and XUL is also a…

Well, I think this is extremely cool. The concept is great, the minimalist mod_strip is thoughtfully designed, and even as someone who isn't a fan of JavaScript I think it makes…

I love the idea of modules, using web tools to hack our own UX should be the standard in future softwares. Great job !

Cool project. The fact the whole UI and app is scripted/built with JS should make modifying your browser trivial. I like.

This is very cool - I just figured out how to shrink the top strip to 25px from its original 45px in about 5 minutes. Very refreshing compared to modifying Firefox.

Neat project, but the marketing's a little disingenuous. It's not "entirely written in Javascript", it's a Javascript layer on top of Chromium, an enormous codebase written in C++.

Javascript except for the millions of lines of C++ code that make up the actual browser (chromium embedded using the content api). Cool hack though.

Seems to be very unstable on Yosemite Beta 2. I tried loading this thread, and it the HTML view froze immediately. I then tried to load up Reddit, and it just wouldn't load. It's…

Loaded initially, installed mod_strip, crashed, now crashes upon load. OSX 10.9

I would like to try this out but it crashes when I try to start it and dumps core. I raised an issue here: https://github.com/breach/breach_core/issues/95

I'm trying to put this as constructively as I can: Proudly dismissing Windows on the second line of your copy makes me not want to take you seriously. There's nothing wrong with…

I'm on Ubuntu 32-bit, and I'm only getting linked to the 64-bit download. Is there even a 32-bit version?

but not for windows.... fml.

The idea is great, but in a world where browser performance is a competition, writing a web browser in Javascript might not be the best. The interest here is learning, and it…

Neat, wish I could test on Windows. I'd love to see the performance.

but not for windows.... fml.

No HiDPI support :( Damn it.

One thing that hit me was typing a URL wrong provided no feedback to me that my input might be wrong (no dns records found, or server not on https, but happens to be on http)

Absolutely love this! Great job, but I'm kind of annoyed that writing breach modules to improve my web experience threatens to derail my side projects. PS- Spell check doesn't…

Exciting! Can you detail how it’s significantly different from node-webkit?

As a newfound convert to the Conkeror browser, which basically allows you to configure everything through JS and use MozREPL to talk to your browser instance purely through JS,…

What about this doesn't also apply to Firefox? It too is open source and modular, and also written in Javascript (though combined with XUL rather than HTML, and using Gecko…

The only question on everyone's mind: how's its JavaScript support? :) Enough to self-host?

This is a neat hack on current technologies. Reminds me of uzbl [0] in the separation of modules, each one being good at only one thing and doing it well. What eventually killed…
