What is Webian Shell?

Webian Shell is an operating system interface focused on web applications, tailored specifically for use within a browser environment. Its back button mimics that of standard browsers, while its window manager acts as a tab manager, enabling any web page to be set as the default homepage. The system can store applications, bookmarks, and browsing history, with the added benefit of synchronization across multiple devices through Webian Home. In its earlier iterations, Webian Shell was built on technologies such as XULRunner, Mozilla Chromeless, and Mozilla's B2G, all of which are now considered outdated. The Gecko engine has evolved from a robust application development platform to a backend solely for Firefox. Following B2G's shift to community-driven development, I envisioned utilizing B2G OS as a base, capitalizing on a newly structured architecture that differentiated between system chrome and web services, thereby allowing for creative enhancements. This strategy not only aims to enhance user experience but also opens doors to innovative functionalities that could redefine how users interact with web applications. By reimagining these frameworks, we can cultivate a more cohesive and engaging web environment for everyone.

What is Cruz?

Cruz is a cutting-edge web browser tailored for Mac OS X, offering several unique features that distinguish it from other browsers in the market. A highlight of its capabilities is the "Browsa" plugin, which allows users to simultaneously view multiple web pages in a convenient sidebar split view format. Users can easily activate the Browsa sidebar by clicking one of the "compass" icons found in the toolbar on the right side of the window, enabling seamless navigation to various sites within the sidebar layout. Furthermore, the browser provides extensive customization options for Browsa, including settings for the homepage, navbar visibility, user-agent string, and more, allowing individuals to personalize their browsing experience to their liking. Additionally, Cruz shines with its powerful AppleScript integration, providing a comprehensive set of AppleScript commands that surpass those of other browsers on Mac OS X. This feature empowers users to automate tasks such as opening, closing, or selecting tabs and windows, loading web pages, and clicking links with ease through AppleScript. To familiarize yourself with all of Cruz's AppleScript functionalities, simply launch Apple's AppleScript Editor and choose Cruz from the application list. In addition, Cruz supports advanced user scripts and styles, greatly increasing its flexibility and functionality as a web browsing solution. With such a diverse range of features, Cruz stands out as a browser that caters to the needs of Mac users looking for enhanced control and customization.
