Build it yourself

The whole thing is on GitHub, under the GNU GPL v3. Clone it, install a few libraries, and it builds.

Open the repository

With meson

The build needs WebKitGTK 6, GTK 4, libadwaita, json-glib, libsoup 3 and a few more. The HACKING.md file in the repository has the full list, and a container recipe that installs nothing on the host.

sh 
$ git clone https://github.com/camroybal/SparkyBin-Browser.git
$ cd SparkyBin-Browser
$ meson setup build
$ ninja -C build
$ build/src/sparkybin-browser

With flatpak

There are three manifests, one for each channel. The stable one is com.sparkybin.Browser.json.

sh 
$ flatpak-builder --user --install build \
      com.sparkybin.Browser.json

Contributing

Patches are welcome. The project follows the GNOME conventions for commit messages, and the CONTRIBUTING.md file says what to put in a bug report and which problems belong to WebKit rather than to the browser.

Reporting a problem

The issue tracker is on GitHub. Problems with how a page renders, with JavaScript or with video playback belong to WebKit Bugzilla instead, and the guide says which is which.

Where it comes from
