We are making a web browser!
PREVIOUSLY: >>62324402
In the face of recent changes in Firefox and Chrome some anons were asking for a /g/'s perfect web browser, we collected the most wanted here and plan on continuing with the creation.
To contribute follow the WORK PLAN, join the IRC to ask developers for a repo, and get to programming!

Look at the features list and implement them, ask what is currently being worked on if you don't know.

Current progress report from last thread:
tl;dr: major changes that you can't see
I've been doing a major refactor, throwing out half the code in some files. Means no new features but removes barriers to adding them. Most of the directory structure has been moved around to better reflect our future.
All the OpenGL/glfw code is now container in only 2 classes. Paving the way for older OpenGL support, framebuffer and textual interface.
However OpenGL optimizations did take a step backwards: resizing is super fast but a render (which only happens on load or on resize) is much slower. Though this new structure will allow for texture atlasing.
Doing research on how I want to structure my javascript interpreter for next week's work. Also spent some time today on research for vi-style key bindings and looked into https://reproducible-builds.org/.
A lot of breaking things that used to work. Spending hours finding the change that broke them before fixing and repeating.
Are there plans for tree style tabs to be implemented? This is the killer addon that's keeping me on firefox at the moment.

When will framebuffer be implemented and what extra dependencies will it require? Also, if you're not going to add libpng as a requirement, is there a program that can convert PNG to PAM because I don't want to trust a website I don't control
