Dillo is a fast, small-footprint graphical web browser written in C/C++ with its own real-time rendering engine and FLTK GUI toolkit. It focuses on personal security, privacy, and running on old or resource-limited machines, and is extensible via plugins.

Use cases

  • browse the web on old or low-resource machines
  • a privacy-focused minimal web browser
  • fast rendering on slow connections
  • a tiny browser that fits in minimal environments
  • extend a browser with custom plugins
  • test web standards compliance with a bug meter

When to choose

  • you need a lightweight browser for old hardware or embedded systems
  • privacy and security are priorities over modern web features
  • you want a small codebase to hack on

When to avoid

  • you need full modern web standards, JavaScript-heavy sites, or rich media support
  • you need a browser with a large extension ecosystem
