// QUTE_WEB_HIDE_END
|
|
|
|
qutebrowser is a keyboard-focused browser with a minimal GUI. It's based
|
|
on Python and PyQt5 and free software, licensed under the GPL.
|
|
|
|
It was inspired by other browsers/addons like dwb and Vimperator/Pentadactyl.

Donating
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
Working on qutebrowser is a very rewarding hobby, but like (nearly) all hobbies
|
|
it also costs some money. Namely I have to pay for the server and domain, and
|
|
do occasional hardware upgrades footnote:[It turned out a 160 GB SSD is rather
|
|
small - the VMs and custom Qt builds I use for testing/developing qutebrowser
|
|
need about 100 GB of space].
|
|
|
|
If you want to give me a beer or a pizza back, I'm trying to make it as easy as
|
|
possible for you to do so. If some other way would be easier for you, please
|
|
get in touch!
