webpositive

WebPositive is a web browser developed for the Haiku operating system. It is the default browser included with Haiku. WebPositive is built upon the WebKit rendering engine, which is also used by other popular browsers such as Safari and Chrome. This foundation allows WebPositive to render modern web pages accurately and efficiently.

The browser is designed to be lightweight and responsive, aiming to provide a fast and stable browsing experience on Haiku. It supports common web standards and technologies, enabling users to access a wide range of websites and online services. Key features include tabbed browsing, bookmark management, a download manager, and support for extensions, although the extension ecosystem is less extensive than on more established platforms.

WebPositive's development is closely tied to the Haiku project, with its features and improvements often reflecting the ongoing progress of the operating system itself. The browser is actively maintained by the Haiku community, with regular updates released to address bugs, improve performance, and add new functionalities. Its interface is clean and straightforward, adhering to the overall aesthetic of the Haiku operating system. As a native application, WebPositive integrates well with Haiku's unique features and system architecture.
