Northstar is a minimalist web browser written from scratch in C. One window, one page, one process — about 160,000 lines of original C, small enough for one person to read and audit end-to-end. It carries no upstream browser engine: no Gecko, no WebKit, no Blink. It is free software under the GNU General Public License, version 3 or later, and it runs on Linux, macOS and Windows — on Windows from the Microsoft Store.

Northstar Browser version 1.0.12 released! A sunny ark comic on about:start, a classic Mozilla-style toolbar with address-bar suggestions, relayout and repaint that only redo what changed, popovers per the HTML standard, the Microsoft Store package, an 8 MB engine stack, and a build on Fabrice Bellard’s original QuickJS

        þ (thorn) is a character from Old English and some Scandinavian scripts. It represents the <th> phonemes. Wiþ = with, þink = think.

        Thorn can be used for both the voiced and voiceless <th> (voiceless: thin, voiced: that), but ð (eth) can also be used for tge voiced version. Farðer = farther, ðose = those.

        I quite like both, and the only reason I don’t use them is because I haven’t found a keyboard I can use them with.
