"ginger" is an old-fashioned new browser!

It loves html & css but is skeptical about cookies, scripts and plugins

Cookies and scripts are supported but are disabled by default. They can be enabled for trusted sites. There are no plans for plugins yet.

Image

FAQ

Is it fast?

Not yet. Speed is lower priority in the current development cycle.

Will it be slow because it is written in Java?

Nope; we don't think so. Most Java run-times perform very well for long-running applications. It might consume more memory though.
