# Opossum Web Browser Basic portable Web browser; only needs a Go compiler to compile, no C dependencies Supported features: - rudimentary CSS/HTML5 support, large parts like float/flex layout are just stub implementations - Server-side rendered websites - Images (pre-loaded all at once though) - TLS - experimental JS/DOM without AJAX can be activated (basically script tags are evaluated) # Install ## Plan 9 You can download a tarball with the binary at http://psilva.sdf.org/opossum-plan9-amd64.tgz ``` ./opossum-plan9-amd64.bin ``` Also `/sys/lib/tls/ca.pem` needs to be present for TLS to work. ca certs can be downloaded from the curl homepage: ``` hget https://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem > /sys/lib/tls/ca.pem ``` To compile the source Go 1.15 is needed. Probably `$GOPROXY` should be set to `https://proxy.golang.org` ``` cd cmd/browse go run . ``` There are various command line options, visible with `-h`, most importantly to see errors: ``` go run . '-quiet=false' ``` or all messages: ``` go run . '-quiet=false' '-debug=true' ``` ## macOS Requirements: - Go - Plan9Port ``` cd cmd/browse go run . ``` ## TODO - load images on the fly - implement more parts of HTML5 and CSS - create a widget for div/span - clean up code, support webfs, snarf, file downloads
