Chromium is the open-source web browser project behind Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and many other browsers. This repository is the official GitHub mirror of the Chromium source code.

Use cases

  • build a custom web browser from Chromium source
  • contribute patches to the Chromium browser
  • study how a production browser engine works
  • embed Chromium rendering in another application
  • debug a Chromium-specific rendering or security issue

When to choose

  • you want to fork or build a Chromium-based browser
  • you are contributing to the Chromium project itself
  • you need to inspect or patch browser engine internals

When to avoid

  • you just want a browser to use day-to-day - download a release build instead
  • you want to embed a browser in your app with minimal effort - use CEF or Electron
  • you expect to git clone and build quickly - the checkout and build process is large and complex
