Wexond is a modern, feature-rich web browser built on Electron and React, designed to be lighter than full Chromium by stripping Google services. It also serves as a framework/base for developers who want to build their own custom web browser without compiling Chromium.
Use cases
- build a custom web browser without compiling chromium
- browse the web with built-in ad blocking and tracker protection
- use a lightweight chromium-based browser without google services
- organize tabs with tab groups and scrollable tabs
- install chrome extensions from the chrome web store
- customize the browser ui and new tab page
When to choose
- you want to fork or build a custom browser on electron instead of patching chromium
- you need a privacy-focused browser with ad blocking via the Cliqz adblocker
- you prefer a customizable, modern UI built with React and TypeScript
When to avoid
- you need full Chrome extension compatibility - support is only partial and work-in-progress
- you need a production-grade browser with active development and a clear license
- you require enterprise features like sync, profiles, or Google services integration
